Freitags-Eyecandy: Still Here

Heute haett ich mal keine lustichen Stopmo-Dingis mit bei sondern ganz harten Tobak in Form einer Kurzdoku von Sean Wang mit bei.

“Still Here” was filmed in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, in the village where my grandmother lived, my mother grew up, and where I spent my childhood summers. Nine years ago, my grandmother moved out of the village. Recently, I discovered that not only did nobody move into my grandmother’s house after she left, but that the entire village had been displaced and decayed for years, except for a few residents who refused to leave. I was curious to find out what their lives were like now that the village was abandoned, and why they decided to stay.
