SPLENDID FLOAT (Yan Guang Si She Gewutuan)
(Taiwan, 2004) Dir./Scr.: Zero Chou


Rose is a drag queen. Roy is a Taoist priest. They are the same person. When Roseís ex-boyfriend Sunny drowns, he is asked by the family to perform the Taoist funeral rites to call the soul home. The complications of serving the family, Sunny and the drag sistersí come to bear on Rose. Unable to express himself fully, Rose is left on the outside looking in. The film represents the gay dilemma in Taiwan via the absurd, and explores the possibility of reconciling the traditional and queer communities.
