The Urge to Run a Lap -- Film Description:
"'This is a kind of fiction with multiple endings,' a starkly italicized caption opens this filmic ruse. After years away, a middle-aged woman revisits the maternity home where she once lived as a pregnant teenager. Drawing from traditions of observational documentary and ethnographic film, Chan's singularly mystical thesis film is an inspired, animist, fictional intervention in modes of self-representation. Personified by found objects, namely ornate assemblage sculptures crafted from paper fans and wooden legs, the unnamed 'faceless' protagonist contends with relapsing cycles of girlhood, maturation, and memory, in what unfurls as a feverish, textually charged marathon. Bereft of spoken dialogue, this work employs text with adroit, animated candour."
