Communicating with the Spirits

Communicating with the Spirits

7 films

In March, Xinfu Market hosted a community event themed "Communicating with Deities" focusing on the spiritual life and beliefs of Wanhua. From traditional incense crafting to modern fragrances, from drawing divinatory lots and seeking divine guidance to spiritual communication, from fortune-telling and divination to finding one's own energy spectrum—communicating with deities is also about communicating with oneself. Local shops, unique brands, and creators were invited to participate, collectively responding to a century-old culture of faith in new ways. Continuing the market's theme, the team has curated seven feature films and documentaries related to faith, inviting viewers to explore the diverse facets of belief through cinema.

新富町文化市場

原是建造於1935年的新富町食料品小賣市場,2006年被指定為臺北市市定古蹟,經空間修復後由忠泰基金會團隊進駐營運,2017年以「新富町文化市場U-mkt」為名重新開放。2021年起推出主題市集與文化體驗活動「新富有樂市」,期盼能帶領民眾一起認識、探索萬華的更多可能。
