落跑3人行

失業二年多的吳發達謀職四處碰壁,開計程車突槌,連當小偷都失敗的被困在冰櫃裡讓警察救出來。還被房東趕出去,落得以車為家。阿達妻受不了,終於在一次夫妻衝突後拋家棄子而去。受到妻子的刺激,阿達挺而走險,戴著米老鼠面具去搶銀行,卻晚了一步碰到另二名搶匪在搶銀行,二名搶匪得手逃逸而去,阿達卻因為面具被搶匪打落而被銀行監視器拍到。 阿達逃出銀行時在門口迎面撞上因經濟風暴被資遣的電子公司高級主管余樂天。這一撞把阿達的皮匣撞落在樂天身上,樂天為了將皮匣還給阿達,跟在阿達後面追跑,而被誤會是搶匪集團的一夥。阿達因為在警局有案底,又不忍兒子阿吉啦無所依靠拒絕為樂天到警局澄清。而樂天也因潛藏回家時聽到妻兒間的對話,知道女兒對他的不諒解與怨恨而覺得心灰意冷。二人於是決定逃避通緝,帶著阿吉啦展開一場逃亡之旅。 三人一行來到南部,樂天到夜市的一家牛排攤問路,卻被老闆牛排王誤以為是朋友介紹來工作的幫工阿慶。樂天在百口莫辯的情況下被指使去作他一向拉不下面子做"粗鄙"的工作,當牛排王知道認錯人時,樂天覺得繼續逃亡下去也不是辦法,而且"粗鄙"的工作也不是想像中那麼不堪,因此拜託牛排王留用他,隱姓埋名留在牛排攤繼續跑桌。 這兩老一小的落跑三人組,租了一間老式公寓展開了它們的同居生涯。阿達在樂天的「以身作則」下了解責任的意義,也開始思考他為人父的責任,開始認真找工作。在一連串的碰壁後,阿達來到萬祥開的機車行,吳發達也就成了機車達。 牛排攤的工作讓樂天改變他的價值觀,放下他的虛榮心,讓他更加謙卑地重新認識生命的價值也更能體會快樂幸福的真諦。另一方面,因為在牛排攤工作常接觸到年輕人,樂天似乎比較能了解年輕人的生活與心態,這對因為過度投入工作而不知道如何與孩子溝通互動的樂天不啻是個意外收穫。 日子一天一天過去,這落跑三人組最終將會面對什麼樣的命運呢?他們的人生還有再次重來的機會嗎?

Drag in Me

A student, initially serving as a director, filmed his LGBTQ+ teacher but eventually became personally involved in drag. What began as an observer's stance transformed into active participation in drag. Through self-engagement in drag, the director assumed the identity of Rachel and seized an opportunity for a dialogue with self-identity. This experience led to an awareness of the conflicting dialectics between societal frameworks and personal identity. The director embarked on multiple attempts to coexist with and showcase the multifaceted aspects of the transformed, drag persona.

少年午夢

Summer 1996. Days after finishing their national college entrance exams, teenagers Simao, Awai and Qiming crashed their car at dawn following a night out in Beihai - with passengers An'an and Xiaomei. Simao, the driver, hovered near death in ICU for three months while his grandmother and traumatized friends kept vigil. Unbeknownst to the comatose youth, two life-altering events occurred that summer: his long-absent mother visited secretly, and his college acceptance letter arrived. This coming-of-age story traces the trio's journey through guilt, confusion and fractured dreams in Simao's shadow. When he finally awakens three years later - his innocence preserved like a time capsule - his friends confront bittersweet truths: their struggles to outgrow teenage skins now mirror the very fractures that once bound them.

Dying Out of Sight: Hikikomori in an Aging Japan

It's estimated over a million Japanese live as "hikikomori," recluses totally withdrawn from society. Some hikikomori may even go for decades without leaving their house. While in the past the phenomenon was most commonly associated with young men, recent data has revealed a much wider demographic of people whose confidence in themselves, and in society, has been shattered. As the parents or relatives hikikomori so often depend on entirely become too old to care for them, many now face a dire situation, left alone and unable to cope.

The Niyodo River: A Symphony in Blue

The 124-kilometer Niyodo River is the purest in all of Japan. It possesses a striking hue of blue known as Niyodo Blue that is a testament to the cleanliness of its waters, which have remained pristine despite serving the needs of 100,000 locals. The program vividly portrays the Niyodo through gorgeous photography captured with the latest technology and Masakatsu Takagi's evocative piano score. The Niyodo remains blue from the forests that give it birth to its mouth. Along the way, its waters nurture the colorful wildlife that live in and around the river while also displaying a surprising expressiveness themselves. These aspects are filmed in meticulous detail with the help of guide Nobuyuki Takahashi, a photographer with intimate knowledge of the river.
