It breaks down barriers, creating connections across divides. This festive and nomadic tour blends captivating films with insightful discussions, inviting you on a journey of exploration, observation, and brainstorming across borders.
📽️ We’re thrilled to welcome you to our first event in November, where we’ll be screening the moving Taiwanese documentary:

夢洄
儘管身處於基督宗教盛行、醫學發達的當代社會，對原住民族而言，傳統信仰依然扮演著不可或缺的角色。當族人希望了解往生者的心願與未竟之事，往往仍需透過巫醫的占卜與儀式，才能尋得答案與慰藉。
然而，在現代化浪潮中，這些能夠傳達祖靈意志的巫醫，其人數日漸稀少。即便如此，他們依然堅守在儀式與信仰的最前線，努力成為族人與祖靈之間的橋樑。但無論是前來尋求儀式的族人，還是主持儀式的巫醫，在儀式過後仍需面對各自現實中的困境與疑難——傳統的靈性回應，與現代生活的重壓，在他們的生命中交織成一場難解的張力。
