Beyond Innocence: Giloo x TIFF 2023
Being misunderstood leaves wounds in people's hearts; sometimes these misunderstandings are cleared, while other times they heal with time. But to be misunderstood by the state, to be wrongfully convicted by the judiciary, means not only losing freedom and time but also all the myriad possibilities of embarking on different life paths. Coinciding with the physical screenings of the 2nd Taiwan Innocence Film Festival "Never" in 2023 (December 7th-10th, Spot Huashan Cinema), Giloo and the Taiwan Innocence Project Association jointly present "Beyond Innocence Online Film Festival." Through eight selected films related to wrongful convictions, justice, and incarceration, we invite you to explore judicial errors and prison life you may have never imagined before.

Encore, Before the Goodbye
"My Bucket List" holds no grand dreams, only 100 little things yet undone, and a "see you tomorrow" that was never properly spoken. The same goes for "Encore: Before Saying Goodbye"—here, eternity is left unmentioned; there is only the desire to perform one last song for oneself before the lights go down. The scars of youth, the terror at the edge of the boxing ring, the wordless closeness between strangers, and the farewells quietly practiced in daily life—six films, each rehearsing the very same question: If only an encore remains, what sound do you wish to leave behind?
