film director
“The meaning of time exists in some particular moments, and the fact of passing itself. In the story Before the Typhoon Comes, a boy feels restless when facing his parents’ divorce. It follows him from the childhood to adulthood, and finally released on the beach. His story, and the story that he told himself take places in different dimensions of time, which is the truth of life, and the fact of subjectivity for everyone.”
