Abduction, Gwaai Jan (2016) dir. Xiong zaixia
This is my first experimental film Abduction. Inspired by the comic Fuan no tane of Masaaki Nakayama and the film AKA. Serial Killer of Masao Adachi, I decided to make an experimental film recording the urban legends, hauntings, terrible rumors, horror cases, murders and bizarre incidents. And Hitosarai (Abduction) is one of the small chapter in the Fuan no tane. Personally, the sceneries that I recorded in the film were the scary moments in my life forever. I tried to get back to the very point to experience the feeling of anxiety but excitement. The original title Gwaai Jan is the latin transliteration of Cantonese. Yes, I am from Guangdong Province, China. When I was a child, I experienced some weird and scary things from the Japanese television. Thats also a terrible moment for me. The Japanese intertitles is only a reflection of my impression towards Japan.
