At the Moment is a taiwanese series directed by Lien Yi-Chi, Ray Wu, Pin-Chuan Kao, Norris Wong, and Remii Huang.
Today, on Friday, we are introduced to this pleasant yet bittersweet and realistic Taiwanese series about the lives of individuals who, while sharing apartments, lives, spaces, and situations, have much more in common than it seems: they all want to feel that “something more” in this world that, seemingly, wants to deny it.
At the Moment is a series that excels in its photographic quality and manages a dynamic and lively pace in a series that goes beyond being a typical sitcom, putting the camera and waiting for the characters to develop: it is filmed like a cinematic piece, carefully considering each shot and framing, the positioning of light, and more, with great respect for the viewer.
