A Lean Soul examines the life and works of Taiwanese novelist Qi Deng Sheng. The filmmakers were able to have in-depth interviews with not only the writer's closest friends and relatives but also the notoriously camera-shy protagonist himself. The film vividly dramatizes many passages from his intensely autobiographical works of fiction. The result is an intimate and candid portrait of one of the most important and controversial Taiwanese writers.

The Inspired Island (Series)

The film project "They Write on the Island" attempts to use documentary images as the medium, and the director's film style and language as the guide, to introduce important Chinese writers to the next generation while recording important records of literary masters in the form of film texts readers. Our focus is not limited to preservation, but also to show how writers and their works convey moving power during the historical process of handing over generations, and become literary and cultural assets of generations.
