They Are There But I Am Not is a fascinating exploration of time told through the lens of Taiwanese poetry. The film uses a blend of visual and auditory elements that feel both intimate and expansive, allowing the viewer to ponder the nature of existence. The director, while remaining anonymous, manages to intertwine personal moments with broader reflections on reality, which is quite distinctive. The pacing has a dream-like quality, almost like drifting through memories rather than a linear narrative. There are no flashy special effects; it’s all about the rawness of the moments captured. The performances, particularly by the poet, feel genuine and unguarded, enhancing that feeling of a very personal journey through time and space.
