Guyuan Ma devotes herself to exhuming stories of Chinese female, lower class and the neglected groups of people, and making them more visible and respected. As a big fan of Béla Tarr and Kiewslowski, she is learning to tell these personal stories with more universal life experiences and philosophy. As a sensitive director, she is good at capturing very subtle emotions; as a big fan of Zhang Lv, she hopes to write poetry with image; in the meantime, as a DP, she wants to convey an eastern aesthetics. Her lifetime goal is to make a film as concise and deep as The Turin Horse.
