Across hand-drawn animation, stop motion, and digital imagery, Taiwan’s emerging animation directors give new form to bodies, memories, and everyday life. In response to the question “Who are we?”, each filmmaker begins from their own position, allowing the island’s diverse and vital experiences to offer their own answers through moving images.
When the familiar surface of reality begins to crack, another set of rules governing time, space, and life quietly comes into motion. Through lines, textures, and sound, animation creates universes that have never existed, allowing unfamiliar creatures and strange landscapes to emerge from the imagination. As we pass through these cracks, we encounter not only other worlds, but also another side of reality yet to be discovered.
Before growing into towering trees, these tender sprouts begin to emerge everywhere. On city cliffs, by a girl’s window, and within the unnoticed cracks at street corners, they quietly take root and grow. Through diverse mediums and audiovisual languages, emerging animators from Taiwan and Hong Kong create stories that are subtle yet powerful — sometimes sharp, sometimes understated. Within these works, we catch glimpses of fleeting moments of creative spark.
