Bodyless

The story is from director’s childhood memories which depicts the reduction of humanity by military government during martial law in Taiwan, the colonial culture as well as the digital era, creating a story beyond reality. A political prisoner who has become a ghost has returned to the living world to visit his family, but has found out that the house is empty. An ominous force damages the spiritual world, reducing human forms and memory to simple geometrical shapes.
