- Yumen2013-02-12Set in a quasi-ghost town that once thrived with oil in China's arid northwest, Yumen is a haunting, fragmented tale of hungry souls, restless youth, a wandering artist and a lonely woman, all searching for human connection among the town's crumbling landscape. One part "ruin porn", one part "ghost story”, and entirely shot on 16mm, the film brings together performance art, narrative gesture, and social realism not only to play with convention and defy genre, but also to pay homage to a disappearing life-world and a fading medium.More...
- Film in Which There Appear Edge Lettering, Sprocket Holes, Dirt Particles, Etc.1966-11-11Film in Which There Appear... is a six-minute loop of the double-printed image of a "China girl" or "Shirley card", her image off-center, making visible the sprocket holes and edge lettering on the film. According to Land, within the loop, "no development in the dramatic or musical sense" occurs. Fred Camper described Film in Which There Appear... as "a kind of Duchampian found object, a [...] film that focuses attention on the medium and the viewer." There also exists a 20-minute "widescreen version" involving two prints of the film projected side-by-side, with the left print flipped horizontally so that the "China girl" forms an almost complete face in the center.More...

2023-05-26This movie tells the story of a pair of sisters who have been separated since childhood and meet as strangers many years later. After getting along day and night, their love gradually develops into a couple relationship, but at the end they find an unusual relationship with each other... Through this film, we want to explore where the moral bottom line of society is, especially when we touch on themes of gays and taboo love, and reflect on the right and wrong of these more extreme relationships. And the role of sister represents the public who feel that this relationship is "wrong" according to social ethics and moral standards. The younger sister represents the "selfish" self in the love relationship. After all, it is "beautiful" to be with the person you love the most and have each other. There is nothing wrong with loving each other. The only thing wrong is that they are sisters. (Google Translate)Caterpillar
