On the Verge of Growth | Emerging Animation from Taiwan & Hong Kong
Before growing into towering trees, these tender sprouts begin to emerge everywhere. On city cliffs, by a girl’s window, and within the unnoticed cracks at street corners, they quietly take root and grow. Through diverse mediums and audiovisual languages, emerging animators from Taiwan and Hong Kong create stories that are subtle yet powerful — sometimes sharp, sometimes understated. Within these works, we catch glimpses of fleeting moments of creative spark.

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?
