Natalia (2025)

Özet

“Natalia” is a film I made in Poland from the perspective of an Asian student. I went abroad for a year, in order to escape from the monotonous life back home in Taipei—only to realize, that I had merely created a new kind of repetitive daily routine in a foreign land.
The film presents the absurdity of everyday repetition with abstract imagery. Through the bilingual internal dialogue of the protagonist, Natalia, who becomes aware of this looping pattern, the film questions whether travel is an escape from the cycle or simply the beginning of a new one.
