Sports Documentaries
"The more success the heavens grant you, the more challenges and trials they give," said Kuo Hsing-Chun, Taiwan’s weightlifting goddess who claimed the nation’s first Olympic gold medal and shattered three Olympic records.

Those irreversible slices of life
Recently, in a novel I've come to love, I found myself grasping the weight of life's slices. In the story, there is a wicked sorcerer who freezes people in the instant just before tragedy strikes—suspending everything, sealing it into a crystal ball, and building an entire museum from these frozen moments. And isn't film, in its own way, just as cruel? As viewers, we are little more than instruments for collecting tissue slices—slipping into a character's world for a single fleeting moment, wandering through it in passing, only to return, in the blink of an eye, to the reality that is our own.
