'Left-Handed Girl' Sean Baker X Zhao Siqing, Park Jung-min Appears on Muze YouTube

On November 12, the movie 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 directed by Zhao Siqing and co-produced, written, and edited by Sean Baker will be released, and actor Park Jung-min will make a surprise appearance on the YouTube publisher Muze to promote the film. Before the official interview, actor Park Jung-min described 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 as a 'shocking movie' and shared his honest feelings, saying it was "the most touching film I have seen recently."

〈Left-Handed Girl〉 is a family drama that deals with the family secrets accumulated over three generations that finally explode at the grandmother's 60th birthday party, brought about by a left-handed girl who uses the devil's left hand. Director Zhao Siqing explained that 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 started from a real story where his grandfather scolded him, saying, 'The left hand is the devil's hand,' and emphasized the message that we need to break away from old traditions and create new traditions that benefit everyone.

In particular, 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 was filmed entirely with an iPhone camera. Sean Baker and Zhao Siqing have previous experience shooting films with an iPhone. Regarding the reason for filming 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 with an iPhone camera, director Zhao Siqing stated, "I wanted to capture the vibrant atmosphere of the real night market," while Sean Baker shared that it serves as an alternative to traditional film shooting because it attracts less attention and has fewer constraints in the shooting environment.

The interview with 〈Left-Handed Girl〉 is filled with interesting stories, including the episode where a Mamamoo song makes a surprise appearance and the connection between actor Park Jung-min and Mamamoo, which can be found on the YouTube channel 'Publisher Muze MUZE' (https://youtu.be/SAumdA60kWE?si=6wLoaglObasqInFx).

〈Left-Handed Girl〉 was invited to the Critics' Week at the 78th Cannes Film Festival and won the 2025 Gan Foundation Distribution Award. It will represent Taiwan in the International Feature Film category at the 2026 Academy Awards. Through the symbol of being left-handed, it raises questions about identity and freedom in modern society.
