The Adventures of the Ugly Duckling

The "robot duck" from the moon, Ani, is adopted by a mother duck of the prairie flying duck family by chance. A Nai firmly believes that he, like the other ducklings, is eager to be able to fly. The super power chip on Ani's body attracts the tracking of the moon people, and it turns out that Ani is a super bomb used by the evil scientists on the moon to destroy the earth's atmosphere. With the coyotes chasing him, Ani and his buddies go south to reunite with the migrating ducks. Despite the danger of the chip explosion, Ani defeats the evil doctor and helps the duck flock to reach the south with love, affection and bravery. Ani also realized his dream: to grow up to be a real flying duck.

2076 (Elegy)

In the year 2076, a cyborg finds moving images made by their great-grandmother in the last years of celluloid. Looking at the images, they are struck by the past, causing them to dig into their own memories, history, and identity. Gleaned from images from the filmmaker's life, 2076 looks at the ways in which familial history and queer identity are communicated through the archive/photographic image. Topically situated as the analog image is quickly disappearing, this film explores its virtues, illustrating the ways in which the past imbues small moments with power and glimpses of our past can speak and serve as catharsis to our present.

Love Like Aliens

In a future not too far from now, Humanity has advanced to a point where the line between Homo sapiens and Androids have blurred completely. This has occurred so that the species could survive. Technology has allowed humans to travel into deep space to colonize other planets and galaxies deep in the universe because Earth has become uninhabitable. One of the many unfortunate results of this robotic Darwinism is that human behavior and consciousness has also changed over the years. Much of what makes one human -- love, family, intimacy etc., have all become things of the past. Almost legend.

Stratum 1: The Visitors

One night, two men meet in an abandoned building, and share their memories about early lives in their hometowns. They leave this building and continue to roam in the night, then they find themselves return back to the abandoned building: it looks more unfamiliar now, then it collapse down, then it's gone. They leave this place and pass by more ruins and finally reach to the edge of the city and arrive at a hill which is constructed by piled-up construction waste. On the top of the hill, they see the railway that leads to their hometown.

Les Temps Inachevés

Two parallel narratives intertwine: the first follows a helmet-clad, faceless horse and rider adrift in an indeterminate landscape of ice and snow, quite literally lost in time and space, while the second seems to allude to a strange scientific experiment. Lost in Time plunges us into perpetual renewal, each ending leading to a new beginning. The protagonists – two beings bound by a certain mutual dependence – are forever trapped in a time loop where life and death ceaselessly rotate.

The Abyss

My inspiration is from the novel Us, which was written by Yevgeny Zamyatin, a Russian writer. In this world, no one has his/her own name except a code. Human beings are divided into several levels. Different levels were assigned to different types of work. The “Fountain” is both the source of energy and the landmark landscape in this city. There are many tall towers like diving platforms near the fountain. People can get closed to the “fountain” here. This city is always crowded and dark. D-503 lives a regular life here every day…
