Strolling Around

At that time, we sat on the first floor of the Social Welfare Hall, eating the Lao Wu charcoal grilled salty crispy cakes brought by Wenrui from Fuxing Road, Yilan, and looking at the sparse crowds of people on Tongqing Street, the trees swaying in the wind, and the Yilan River flowing not far away. Tsai Ming-liang said: "Sheng-Yuan tells me that apart from the buildings in the middle of the field providing shelter from the wind and rain and living functions, he also hoped that the people inside would look out and see the mountains, the water, the trees, the weeds, the rice paddies, the gullies, and the flying birds that we have. Let's stroll around and see how happy we are.”

Fluffy Rhapsody

The film follows the meandering misadventures of an aimless medical school graduate who has never kept a job and wanders from the bed of one girl to another.

A mixture of fast living and brooding melancholy, Fluffy Rhapsody is an engaging, photogenic essay on the current generation of seemingly thoughtless, but in fact overly introspective urban youth.
