Program Note
Regarded as the inaugural work of the “Taiwanese New Cinema,” In Our Time is an anthology in four sections showing the passage of life, with each section surrounding a lead in primary school, secondary school, university, and society; directed by TAO Te-Chen, Edward YANG, KO I-Chen and CHANG Yi respectively. Yang’s second part Expectation centers on an adolescent girl facing the changes in her physical body while her ambiguous desires are enticed by the new college student tenant. Just when she has gathered enough courage to voice her thoughts, her elder sister was already one step ahead. Yang has successfully portrayed the growing pains of the body, emotions and revelation in human relationships. The ambiance of the era can be seen as an experimental precursor to A Bright Summer Day. (WEN Tien-Hsiang)
