撿起放下墜落提起

Unclassified 18+

Postwar family memories of the Taiwanese Kinmen Islands are seen as if through broken glass, summoned by way of incense, ceramics, sand, light and shadows.

In this impressionistic short, filmmaker Eric Sheu projects an image of burning incense through an extended 16mm loop. Fragments of family history are refracted through shards of glass and flickers of shadows, and memories of Kinmen bombs linger like incense smoke.
