I Say What You Taught Me To Say

Yu-Ching Chen (TW)

Set on a fictional planet inhabited by parrots, this animated short follows a humanoid parrot who slowly realizes that everything she says is borrowed, repeated, imposed. Language becomes surface. Voice becomes performance. Meaning slips away. Wrapped in gentle colors and uncanny beauty, the film unravels how language can be inherited, distorted, and performed—until the self begins to fracture. When mimicry becomes survival, the parrot asks: Whose words am I really speaking?
