Confusion of the Afternoon
In the boring afternoon after class, two boys played poker cards. The inadvertent physical touch and eye contact touched one of the boys. In game after game, he has a beautiful imagination from this indescribable feeling, and feels that all subtle touches seem to be dancing. However, it’s just that in this game where gays obsess over heterosexual men, he finally has to face the moment when the dance ends...
This film is conceived of the "straight crush" plot in which young gays are obsessed with heterosexual men in their exploration of sexual orientation. It combines a variety of touch-related art mediums, trying to use the concepts of touch and gaze to describe the common experiences and memories of gay growth and memory.

This work is my feeling of sorting out the process of exploring past emotional experience. I hope that I can heal my past self through this work and bring some comfort to the audience. Respect to those who have been lost!
記得第一次向我的研究所指導老師巧芳提報故事內容時,他很直接地問了一句「那異男忘跟暗戀之間有什麼不一樣的嗎?」我覺得本質上是類似的狀況沒錯,但暗戀還是有開花結果的可能性,異男忘幾乎不可能啊!
偏偏在同志的成長經驗當中,異男忘的經驗幾乎人人逃不掉。這部作品是身為創作者的我到了一定的年紀後,試圖回過頭去反思自己過往狀態的作品。也由於異男忘是很多人都有過的回憶,甚至可能會是有點傷感的過往,所以我也希望透過創作這支作品,來療癒有過類似經驗的彼此。
