Leaving Miao Li

Experimental Short ｜ 2020 ｜ 5min

There's one thing she craved to achieve but could not accomplish without the support of close and caring individuals who promised to stick by her side, yet deserted her one by one for unknown reasons. In her dream, a classic physics question is posed to her by an unknown figure on the train. It can be interpreted as a whisper from the universe to insist or abandon her own will.

As the train speeds through the Taiwanese plains, the boundary between reality and reflection blurs. Faced with loss and separation, the director creates a surreal yet grounded dialogue. Through minimal visuals and metaphorical language, the film explores a woman’s inner world.

苗栗

她很想做一件事，但靠她自己无法完成；亲密的人承诺会帮助她，但那些人不久后都相继离去。

梦中的列车上，一道物理题被一个奇怪的男子向她提出。对她而言，这似乎是坚持或放弃本我的一种暗示。
