Dit filmprogramma, ontwikkeld in het kader van Michael Lins tentoonstelling Tea Towels and Serviettes in La Loge, bouwt voort op een belangrijke referentie binnen de artistieke praktijk van de kunstenaar: de Taiwanese New Wave-cinema (Taiwan New Cinema). Deze beweging ontstond in de jaren 1980, tijdens een periode van ingrijpende sociale en politieke veranderingen in Taiwan.

靈山 The Mountain, 蘇弘恩 Ungen Mehan (2015). Documentary, 73 min.

For hundreds of years, Taiwan has been under colonial rules. From the Dutch, the Spanish, the Japanese, to the Republic of China, each regime left their footprints on this island; only the indigenous peoples of this island experience them all. During these periods of colonization, they were given different names and their cultures have been changed. Through the life of a Truku elder, we see the history of indigenous recertification movement.

Born to parents of Indigenous and Han Taiwanese backgrounds, filmmaker Ungen Mehan (SU Hung-En) grew up navigating between two identities. This experience has allowed him to see the world from different perspectives.
