Sentimental Journey (with Georges Hsin) / Taiwan / 2003 / 10’ / 4:3
A melancholic three-part love story: a girl is talking about her ex-boyfriend who is now pursuing homosexual love. Although she stays at home, both of them are exploring simultaneously an unbounded sexual journey. The traditional narrative monologue is manipulated to link the experimental segments. As the story goes on, the emotion of the original and abstract footage become palpable.
