After the Snowmelt

In "After the Snowmelt," a deeply personal and unflinchingly honest documentary, filmmaker Lo Yi-shan embarks on a poignant journey of self-discovery and grief as she confronts her first experience of devastating loss with her best friends Chun and Yueh after their tragic disappearance in Nepal. Trapped in a cave for 47 days, Yueh miraculously survives, while Chun does not - leaving behind an unspoken legacy of queer identity that Yi-shan and Yueh grapple with in raw, intimate conversations about guilt, perseverance, and identity. As they navigate the treacherous terrain of their friendship's aftermath, Yi-shan offers a powerful exploration of the complex interplay between grief, identity, and memory.
