14 Apples poster
Movie

Wang Shin-hong is suffering from insomnia. A fortune teller advises the Mandalay businessman, whose car and bulging wallet suggest that business is going pretty well, to spend 14 days in a monastery, living life as a monk and eating an apple a day. Such a thing is possible in Burma today. Wang Shin-hong arrives at the rural monastery, has his head shaved and dons a red robe, in which he instantly becomes an authority. During the welcome procession, the village women, their poverty clear from their clothing and the huts in the background, put more than they have in his alms bowl. During his fleeting role as their advisor, Wang Shin-hong soon learns of the villagers’ attempts to survive and make a living as legal or illegal migrants in China, Thailand or Malaysia. He also finds out how the other monks try to generate profit and additional income.

Drag in Me poster
Movie

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.

The Monster Is Coming poster
Movie

Since Taiwan’s opening of cable TV in 1993, the number of channels has increased by 30 times, including 8 24-hour news channels. TV news and newspapers are trying to fight for ratings, grab advertisements, invade people’s privacy, make up for news, and seduce gossip. Is there really no cure for this media monster that is damaging the eyes of the audience? Is publicization the last salvation for the failure of the media market? Through the interviews of a number of audiences from all walks of life and the experience of frontline journalists, this film combines the context of the media reform movement to sort out the root causes of media chaos and the possibility of prescribing the right remedy.
