    Awake Before Your Gaze

    Lin Yi-Chi 2025 Taiwan color 20min DCP
    In a ruined American military dormitory, two mixed-race children of the U.S. military in Taiwan, one speaking Hakka and the other Taiwanese, uncover a history their faces and words cannot anchor. Through hypnotic narrative, the work resists fixed ways of seeing and speaking, and gives shape to voices and bodies long held in silence.
