Taipei Factory

A collaborative project consisting four young generation of Taiwan directors, and four young foreign directors from Chile, France, Iran, and South Korea.

"Silent Asylum"

"A Nice Travel"

"Mr. Chang’s New Address"
Mr. Chang’s life turns upside down when his home mysteriously disappears from the face of the Earth. On a quest to find his home, he has to rethink his identity and being. To be or to become, that is the question for Mr. Chang.
