Classic of Singing Chen
Director Singing Chen, whose works have been selected for numerous international film festivals, spans both documentary and fiction, reflecting her long-standing social concerns and profound insights. Through a magical and poetic lens, she highlights the absurdity of reality and systemic issues. Starting with her Taipei Film Award-winning "Bundled(2001)," the director has continuously explored how cinema can intervene in reality and respond to social issues. "The Clock(2011)" and "The Pig(2013)" directly confront forced relocation movements, while "The Walkers(2014)" is a long-term documentary on dancer Lee-Chen Lin, depicting the dialogue between art and the body, and exploring the rhythm and essence of life.

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.
