Solo Dance by Kotomi Li
A young Taiwanese woman relocates to Tokyo hoping to start anew, but finds herself caught between cultures and haunted by memories of sexual violence and the suffocating expectations of family and society. As she drifts through office life and tenuous friendships, she struggles with her queer identity, profound loneliness, and thoughts of self-destruction, while headlines of random violence amplify a pervasive sense of danger. Moving between past and present, Taiwan and Japan, her story traces a raw, intimate search for belonging, safety, and a reason to keep living.
