Huang Ya-Li
Isola di Formosa, Taiwan
HUANG Ya-li is an independent filmmaker in Taiwan, who is interested in the linkage and extension between images and sounds. In recent years, he has been involved in documentaries concerning Taiwan during the Japanese colonial period, hoping to explore the possibility of interpreting reality in the form of documentaries through historical research and examination, and to reflect on the relationship between Taiwan, Asia, and the world. His experimental works include In Light (2003), The Pursuit of What Was (2008), and The Unnamed (2010). Le Moulin (2015) is his first feature documentary.

The Pursuit of What Was
2009
8.0This film is constructed upon the visual poetry between what you hear and see, and a sensual fluidity that is not based on the cause and effect relationship. It casts away the practicalities and the functionalities commonly defined in real-world objects by returning things to their raw state, and guiding the viewer’s awareness to the finer details, while intertwining layers of poetic imagery.
The Unnamed
2010
