Miu Miu Women's Tales #27 | Interview With Director Chui Mui Tan

“I’m making a story about a women’s self defence gym,” says Chui Mui Tan, who directed “I AM THE BEAUTY OF YOUR BEAUTY, I AM THE FEAR OF YOUR FEAR”, the 27th commission from Miu Miu Women's Tales. “I’ve been practicing martial arts for the past four years. More specifically, I’ve been practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and I’m very interested in this union of body and mind”.
Chui Mui Tan (b.1978) is a Malaysian director and film-producer. Born in Sungai Ular, a small fishing village in Kuantan, Malaysia, Chui Mui made her debut feature in 2006, with Love Conquers All, which won numerous prizes at film festivals across the world. Her 2021 feature, Barbarian Invasion, a meditation on motherhood and identity, was nominated for Best Picture at the 24th Shanghai International Film Festival Golden Earl Awards. And in 2022, Chui Mui’s project, Just Because You Pressed the Shutter? won the 2022 Jimei x Arles Discovery Award.

Também deve ser no Brasil ❤

[@krzeszewski]

is hard to listen to her story. please leave Faucault out of this... disgraceful.

[@AR-cf9di]

There’s nothing wrong with what she said. She’s a creator, and intellect and philosophical at that. Get over yourself.

[@krzeszewski]

@@AR-cf9di lol... no she is not. she just throws some words and a skeleton of ideas she doesn't really understand. get some reading done yourself and come back to the discussion.

[@AR-cf9di]

@@krzeszewski she is clearly talking about the relationship between body and mind. You’re disgraceful if you think foucault’s work can only be interpreted in one way and through western cultural lens. No philosopher wants someone so close minded like you to proudly talk about his work. Disgraceful
