Interview with: Director Li Chiao-Ping. Cinematographer Christal Wagner. Dancer Elisabeth Roskopf

From director Li Chiao-Ping:

Elisabeth’s personal story made it a compelling project, as well as the passion and enthusiasm of both my collaborators, Elisabeth Roskopf and Christal Wagner. From meetings and rehearsals to its first screening, it took about 2.5 months (to complete the film). However, since Elisabeth is a dancer in my company, we have been working together for the past 5 years and the subject of her being a transnational adoptee has come up in other choreographic projects.
