Who Killed Billy Billie

Billy is queer and depressed. He self-harms and is constantly bullied for his feminine appearance. After his biological father came out, he left an old camera to Billy. Billy’s mother remarried three times and moved to the United States with her current stepfather. After Billy’s younger sister drowned, the family was abandoned by their stepfather and had to return to Taiwan. One day, after taking a bath, Billy muttered to himself, “I promise to accompany you,” with several medicine jars beside him. He then sat on the toilet and fantasized about having sex with a snail, feeling both pleasure and disgust.

Who Stole our Splendor

The teenager is a wakeboarding athlete who suffers a severe injury during a national competition, forcing him to bid farewell to the sport and fall into endless confusion. The appearance of a mysterious girl helps him find a new goal in life. Their encounter is like a brilliant firework; he finds happiness in her, and in that happiness, he becomes numb, gradually detaching from the world. His prolonged self-imposed exile is like a derailed train, with destiny taking unexpected turns. One night, an accident once again condemns the teenager to a figurative death sentence.
