Taipei 4 Way

Director

Taipei 4-Way is a film on Taipei and the people of Taipei directed by four artists working in various art fields such as animation, installation documentary and experimental film. The film looks at Taipei as a whole through four sections titled' enTAIPEItrance,"traTAIPEIverse','adTAIPEIhere', and 'exTAIPEIit'.

Sentimental Journey

Director

This is a 3-part love story. One girl is talking a story of her ex-boyfriend. He went aboard to chase for homosexual love. Although she stayed home, both of them are experiencing almost simultaneously unbounded sexual exploring journey in each end. The traditional narrative monologue is manipulated as a link to all the experimental segments. As the story goes on, the emotion of those original extremely abstract experimental footages are becoming touchable and understandable.

Psycho Shower

Director

Bathing but no murder! Chun-Hui Wu deconstructs Marion Crane's motel room ablutions in Htichcock's classic "Psycho", reframing and reanimating the famous shower scene into a whole other narrative of frustrated suspense with erotic overtones.
