A tribute to Taiwanese queer novelist Qiu Miaojin, Tong Xie’s experimental short explores queer desires that the modern Asian diaspora navigates within liminal geographical landscapes
Filmmaker and new media artist Tong Xie’s debut short probes the unease, confusion, and obsession experienced by the body as it crosses the urban physiognomy. Set amidst the shadowy loneliness of Paris at night, Absolutely No Sexual Favors je pense à toi 吾想汝顯 depicts the psychological and corporeal marginality of queer identity and desire through perpetually displaced figures.
