In A Conspiracy Man, a barber who runs an online channel to uncover the world’s conspiracies is the laughing stock of his family and those around him. Nobody takes him seriously until one day he is arrested by the police. Little Dazzled Eyes is a bittersweet coming-of-age tale. When school resumes after the SARS epidemic, Hau-ching overhears her crush complimenting another girl’s glasses. To get a pair of glasses, she tries all kinds of tricks to become shortsighted. Happy Valentine’s explores the theme of female agency in contemporary Taiwan, in a one-sided conversation between two long-time girlfriends. In Adrift, an Americanised Hong Kong-Filipino descent, Carmen, stumbles upon her employer’s secret. She is then forced to re-examine herself and confront her own identity.
