Her Glass Flower House
Director: Katharine Fry
Year: 2021
A fever dream of illness and recovery combining stop motion animation and live action in a doll’s house. A woman arrives ahead of her family at a rented house, describing the ideal life they will build together. What happens does not reflect her homemaker vision. Instead, the house and its contents confront her body as external expressions of her struggle to survive.
d.a.n.c.e. f.o.r. y.o.u.r. d.a.d.d.y.
Director: Katharine Fry
Year: 2017
Her body flickers in an attic. A triangle, align; she is flung in a poltergeist semaphore. At once woman, creature and form, she dances anticipation. A whisper, ‘he’s coming home.’
I Heard That They Are Not Going To See Each Other Anymore
Director: Ka Ki Wong
Year: 2026
In present-day Taipei, Tao develops unexplainable affectionate feelings for Shin, an indifferent guy. Desperate to create lasting memories, she sends people to beat him up, using pain as a twisted form of connection. Meanwhile, Melih, having left Istanbul for Taipei, owns a noodle shop. One night, he receives an unexpected flower from the perpetually drunk Ping. Melih begins to stare into the flower from time to time, experiencing the tale of Tao and Shin and revealing his own unspoken desire and failed attempts to connect with Ping. As Melih digs deeper into the tale, he confronts his struggles to form meaningful relationships. His struggle gradually mirrors Tao’s struggle with Shin. As Tao grows closer to Shin, Shin vanishes, leaving Tao to realize that these recollections, retained only by her, might be mere figments of imagination. Tao’s tale then makes Melih question if it’s better to forget everything, as he contemplates whether letting go of solitary memories might finally bring him peace.
