Long Vacation In BK is a 26-minute diary. It is an ode to Taiwan and Asia written while I live in Brooklyn. The film opens with the news of a controversial and renowned Chinese photographer Ren Hang\u2019s suicide, which drives me into my memories of my past life in Asia. During 2007-2017, I, myself, a female, me and my avatars, were traveling and searching, escaping from my family. Traveling the bittersweet road in search of understanding, this is my political journey and my history of growing up. The film toasts to selfishness, to the nature of melancholy and depression as my autobiography from first person perspective. Music is a main theme, an important element of the piece. Even without knowing the background history, the film can be viewed as an expressionistic musical-visual artwork. It uses my personal story to reflect the era that Taiwanese youth experienced. Through my transforming and my migrating, with my shifting viewpoints, and the discrimination I received and released, I re-created things from a different angle, like the twisted world I inhabit \u2014 fake oriental, Asian fever, yellow fever, fusion cuisine and mixtures of all kinds. Screened @ the 40th Golden Harvest Awards for Outstanding Short Films Best Experimental Film, Chiayi International Art Doc Film Festival, and 2018 Experimental Film Exhibition SHU.<\/p>\n
