In the End, I Understood / 2013
In the End, I Understood (2013) by Min Liu is a 2D hand-drawn rotoscoped animation, which poetically conveys the filmmaker’s emotional response to the loss of her friend to cancer.
Composed from live footage, which is overlaid with frame-by-frame drawings to create an ink-like visual effect,
the film seeks to share with a larger audience the complex range of sentiments that we all feel when confronted
with death -- surprise, sadness and a profound re-evaluation of life itself.

於是我穿越了那扇門
踏入了人生的另一個階段
發現離我們而去的人只會越來越多的事實
那以一種疙瘩的形態卡在我腦裡
我挑起 碾碎它在指尖
