Taiwan Docs

Scars on Memory is Taiwanese queer documantarian Mickey Chen's soothing and melancholy epilogue to his queer trilogy, which includes the famous Boys for Beauty (1999) and the controversial documentary on lesbian relationships Memorandum on Happiness(2003).

In Scars on Memory, Mickey Chen parallels and interweaves two gay love stories in a pretty diaspora and literaryway. Continuing his thematic focus on constructing generational perception and visibility of Taiwan’s gay community, this time Mickey Chen brings on two fabulous and vivid 'gay senior citizens'--Madame Yu and Auntie Jiang. Madame Yu and Auntie Jiang recount their touching love stories in with both humor and pathos.
