Wind, Sand and Stars
The land carries memories. From afar, I often think of Hong Kong’s sea and Taiwan’s mountains. The days of my childhood—doing nothing, daydreaming in the warm summer breeze—remain vividly etched in my mind. Only after growing up, only after feeling lost, did I come to realize that beneath the soil lie many complex and thought-provoking stories: stories of colonialism and postcolonialism; stories of escape and homesickness. Through stories that flow between sea and sea, mountain and mountain, we hope to invite everyone, in the new year, to reflect across nations on the meaning of land and identity.

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.
