TAIWAN BIENNIAL FILM FESTIVAL 2019 FILM INFORMATION/TIMELINE October 18, 2019 7:30 Pm
TAIWAN BIENNIAL FILM FESTIVAL 2019 FILM INFORMATION/TIMELINE October 18, 2019 7:30 pm – Opening Film HEAVY CRAVING Billy Wilder Theater In a special celebration, UCLA Film & Television Archive and Taiwan Academy in Los Angeles are excited to accompany the North American premiere of the film with a guest appearance by the film’s acclaimed Director/Screenwriter Hsieh Pei-ju, who will participate in a post-screening Q&A. HEAVY CRAVING (2019) Synopsis: a talented chef for a preschool run by her demanding mother, Ying-juan earns praise for her culinary creations but scorn for her weight. Even the children she feeds have dubbed her “Ms. Dinosaur” for her size. Joining a popular weight loss program seems like an answer but it’s the unlikely allies she finds outside the program—and the obstacles she faces in it—that help her find a truer path to happiness. Writer-director Hsieh Pei-ju doesn’t shy away from the darker sides of self-discovery in what ultimately proves a rousing feature debut, winner of the Audience’s Choice award at this year’s Taipei Film Festival. Director/Screenwriter: Hsieh Pei-ju. Cast: Tsai Jia-yin, Yao Chang, Samantha Ko. October 19, 2019 3:00 pm – “Focus on Taiwan” Panel Billy Wilder Theater Admission: Free With the ‘Focus on Taiwan’ panel UCLA Film & Television Archive and Taiwan Academy in Los Angeles are thrilled to present a curated afternoon of timely conversations about issues facing the Taiwan film industry at home and abroad, including gender equality and inclusion of women and the LGBTQ community on screen and behind the camera, the challenges of marketing Taiwanese productions internationally and more.

Mourning Love: Queer Performativity and Transformation in Zero Chou's
Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 35.2 Sept. 2009: 277-307 Mourning Love: Queer Performativity and Transformation in Zero Chou’s Spider Lilies and Splendid Float Ivy I-chu Chang Foreign Languages and Literatures Department National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan Abstract This paper looks at the role of gay and lesbian performativity, mourning and (individual and communal) transformation in Zero Chou’s Spider Lilies (2007) and Splendid Floa t (2004). Chou shows us the close relation between loss of the love object, the ambivalence or destabilization of self-identity and the need for mourning that marks the gay and lesbian collective imagination. On the line between male/female, straight/gay, life/death and mourning/melancholia, the lesbian Po (Femme) in “Spider Lilies” and gay drag queen in “Splendid Float” perform a hyperbolically feminine role, thereby confusing heterosexual desire and parodying the binary logic of heterosexual representation. Also, through the force of their queer performativity, they transform their own shame and grief. Little Green as Po transforms her shame and is reconciled with the inner child of her past, thus re-affirming her lesbian desire and identity. Ai-wei/Rose and his drag queen friends open up a space of hybridization: their nightly show absorbs the force of communal, native Taiwanese village culture, and the patriarchal Taoist funeral for Rose’s lost love Sunny is infiltrated with queer desire, proliferating the possible forms of gay performativity and representation. Keywords Zero Chou ( 周美玲), gay, lesbian, queer, desire, identity, Taiwanese cinema, Tongzhi , performativity, shame, mourning, melancholia 278 Concentric 35.2 (Sept. 2009): 277-307 In Zero Chou’s (周美玲) gay and lesbian films, love and sex have always been recuperated in the form of mourning, as gay and lesbian characters struggle in vain to forsake their beloveds.
