Until We Reached the Purple Gate There Was Nothing&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;&#38;nbsp;

In Development, Fiction, 90 mins, Director

A year after the 2008 Beijing Olympics, a Chinese student, ZETIAN, finds herself parachuted into a culture shock and identity crisis during her first year in Europe. Struggling to fit in, she grapples with the desire to belong and to be accepted, by doing things she never thought she would do.

When the Sand of the Desert Flows Like a River &#38;nbsp;当沙漠滚滚如水如河 &#38;nbsp;


2022, 15 mins,&#38;nbsp;Video installation, Director


Five years after "the end of the world", a global environmental crisis that destroyed earth’s ecosystem and human society, a group of survivors from various backgrounds came together in the desert. Through community, art, and memories of the past, they search for the last bit of hope in this post-apocalypse world. When the Sand of the Desert Flows Like A River is a video diary of the future we can already foresee, and perhaps only humour can make it bearable. 

Realised under the frame work of Lios Lab Resiidency.
Exhibition:
Festival of the Future Desert, Magdeburg, Germany 2022
