2020東京奧運歷經幾番波折，終於在本月23日順利開跑。各國健將在沒有觀眾吶喊聲援的賽場蓄勢待發，全力角逐最高榮譽。甫於舉重女子59公斤量級賽事為台灣摘下第一面金牌、並打破三項奧運紀錄的舉重女神郭婞淳曾說：「老天爺要你多成功，就會給你多少挫折與磨練。」在奪牌的喜悅背後，有無數青春、鮮血、汗水，有時還有眼淚。無論輸贏，都是一場與自己的拼搏。
What is Taiwan? What does Taiwan have? Our imagination of Taiwan’s future depends on how we choose to read Taiwan. The Taiwanese documentaries selected by Giloo aim to offer a multifaceted and in-depth perspective—allowing us to empathize with the struggles and efforts of the Taiwanese people, uncover the richness of this land, confront its challenges, and analyze the issues that shape life on this island.
"The more success the heavens grant you, the more challenges and trials they give," said Kuo Hsing-Chun, Taiwan’s weightlifting goddess who claimed the nation’s first Olympic gold medal and shattered three Olympic records. Behind the joy of victory lie countless moments of youth, sweat, tears—and sometimes even blood. Win or lose, every game is a battle against oneself. Giloo presents 9 powerful sports documentaries that capture the intensity and cruelty of the athletic world, offering a tribute to all those striving toward the peak of their potential.
22 Inspiring Films to Watch with Kids – A Giloo Family Collection Giloo presents a heartwarming selection of 22 knowledge-rich and emotionally uplifting films perfect for the whole family. Whether your child is full of innocent curiosity or navigating the early stages of adolescence, these films offer moments of inspiration and meaningful lessons to grow with. From a hilarious couple’s wild farming adventure that teaches the importance of sustainability and green living, to the sacred ritual of relocating the Ise Grand Shrine that reveals the harmony between humans and nature, and a touching story of a boy devoted to gymnastics and his steadfast coach that embodies the spirit of perseverance—each film opens a window to learning through storytelling. Stay safe at home and keep learning alive with your kids—education doesn’t stop when school does!
Movement arises from the everyday—originating from the body. The relationship between body and daily life influences our emotions, perceptions, and connections with others. Through the lens of documentaries and the eyes of an observer, we revisit the messages often overlooked in our fast-paced lives. These films explore how the body shapes our sense of being, inviting us to reflect on different ways of living. "Memory of the Body – The Rhythm of Life Film Festival", co-curated by Cloud Gate Dance School and Giloo, invites you to rediscover the rhythm between body and life. Awaken your senses and reconnect with the essence of living.
