When Nothing Never Happens
Director: Leona Kadijevi
Year: 2000
They say that neurotic behaviour is typically within socially acceptable limits, so how do you solve the puzzles in your head while being ''normal''? A film that explores the borders between the different ways a mind can be scattered.
Elegy for the Lost
Director: William Hong-xiao Wei
Year: 2025
Through the psychoanalytic and introspective voiceover of a young post-pandemic Chinese migrant in Europe, the film interweaves her private memories of intimacy with public narratives of resistance. As her reflections unfold, she and her community navigate secrecy, repression, survival, looming precarity, and displacement, all while confronting the personal cost of existing in a world that demands their silence.
How to Be a Ghost in Bangkok?
Director: Jing Zhao
Year: 2025
After being ghosted by a romantic partner during a trip to Bangkok, the artist situates a contemporary act within a timeless Southeast Asian ghost cultural gesture, transforming personal heartbreak into a surreal exploration of ghosthood while reimagining its embodiment through ten playful yet haunting guidelines. Shifting between satire and introspection, the film contemplates the fragility of relationships and the futility and opacity of communication in the hyper-connected digital age.
