In the 1980s and 1990s, I filmed twice in Xining’s public housing. The first time I filmed there was for a TV series, All the Corners of the World, a story about an underprivileged family living in Ximending. Then I made my fourth feature film, The Hole, an apologetic for the end of the millennium. The story is about two strangers who occupy a dilapidated building during heavy rains when the plague is spreading. The film contains elements of music and dance and was entirely filmed inside a public housing in Xining. Because of my filming experience, I did in-depth research and observation of the location. Xining Public Housing was built in 1981. It consisted of two 16-story buildings named A and B. The basement was used as a parking lot and a traditional market, while the ground and first floors were used for commercial purposes. It used to be a lively electronic market, but it has fallen into disrepair. The other spaces were for rent, and about 500 families lived there. There was even a Tudigong Temple right at the entrance of the parking lot. Located on the outskirts of Taipei’s Wanhua District, in the upscale Ximending area, right next to the Tamsui River and Zhongxiao Bridge, Xining Public Housing was a gigantic mixed-use building with an astonishing visual style. However, over time, it has become outdated and worn out. Most of the residents are low-income families. They have been here for 40 years, and there are rumors that the building is haunted and that people occasionally commit suicide by jumping out of it; or indeed, the public services are unreliable to use. It is said that it is about to be demolished soon. How would the 500 families react to this? How do they feel? Will they be able to leave easily or not? As a filmmaker who has a special connection with Xining Public Housing, the only thing I would like to do is take a closer look at it once again.
