Director Statement

In 1979 to 1997, Chinese Criminal Law was establishing the Indecent Crime. In these years, a lot of people got caught who just some men or women wanted to love each other. In this story, We Outlaws, I talked about a man who wanted to be a woman and to get love. When HE realized that HE was a SHE, the storm began to take shape.

I wanted to say something for LGBTQ, because in Chinese, they still are a group of demon to some people even now. My friends just couldn't imagine what was happened to them thirty years ago, so I shoot this short film to tell.
