流浪神狗人 (2007)

Curiosidades

God Man Dog is a 2007 Taiwanese road movie directed by director Singing Chen, starring Jack Kao, Tarcy Su, Chang Han and Jonathan Chang. It depicts the occasionally intertwining lives of three groups of characters of different social backgrounds to provide a comprehensive picture of the contemporary society of Taiwan.

Production

According to director and screenwriter Singing Chen, the story of God Man Dog originally started with two separate scripts: one about urban middle-class life and the other about marginalized people. It took her about five years to consolidate the script. She discovered that the two separate stories asked about the same question: what could one do when his or her heart is wandering and cannot find a place to latch on.

Regarding the religion depicted in the film, Singing Chen says that religion is supposed to help people pacify their minds and find the right path. But she finds that oftentimes religion becomes restriction. Before making the film, she used to work with Taiwanese director Huang Ming-chuan for a long time, traveling around Taiwan to film various documentaries, and encountered many temples and statues of god abandoned by worshipers.

In addition to directing, writing, and editing this film, Singing Chen also specifically participated in producing the music for the yoga music composer in the movie.
