ABOUT THE FILMS:
NO FORM, 2012, Dir. Tsai Ming-liang, 20 Mins, Homegreen Films, Taiwan
Taipei.
Hsiao Kang walks past the Ay-Chung Rice-Flour Noodle shop,
past Shilin Night Market,
and into a white space.
We don’t know where he’s from
or where he’s going.
This is a cellphone ad where the product doesn’t even appear.
After the film premiered in Macau,
the product was pulled before it even hit the shelves.

ABIDING NOWHERE, 2024, Dir. Tsai Ming-liang, 79 Mins, Smithsonian Institution, Taiwan/USA
The tenth Walker film
takes place in Washington DC.
Two lonely souls on separate journeys,
sometimes crossing paths
but never once meeting.
Nothing happens between them.
There is no story.
Their walking journeys are
like a meditative prayer of heart and soul.
— Tsai Ming-liang
FORMAT: DCP
