Curated List

Living elsewhere

CathayPlay 8 films

Some leave their hometowns, while others stay in cities that are changing; Some reintroduce themselves through music, while others search for lost people through images and memories.

These eight films start from streets, industrial zones, campuses, and foreign lands, documenting how people gradually find their own rhythm amid unstable lives. Leaving doesn’t necessarily mean saying goodbye, and staying doesn’t mean you’ve never changed. Everyone is trying to answer the same question: When the familiar world is no longer reliable, where will we continue living?
