Migrant Workers Trilogy
From the women navigating cross-cultural marriages in *Out/Marriage*, to the Vietnamese migrant workers quietly laboring in hidden corners of Taiwan in *Goodbye, My Lovely Stranger*, and finally *And Miles to Go Before I Sleep*, which confronts the social and institutional structures behind the death of a migrant worker, these three documentaries span a decade of stories about people crossing borders—living, working, loving, and losing in Taiwan. To see them again is also to see anew the island we all share.

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.
