2021不只是喜宴
Mickey Chen, Ming-Hsiu Chen
The first public gay wedding in Taiwan has stirred up considerable controversy, including a local campaign to ban this film. It tells the story of Yosheng and Gary, the first gay couple to have a public wedding in Taiwan. Their wedding was held in conventional Taiwanese fashion: a wedding banquet with friends and family and even the mayor of Taipei as the promised wedding moderator.
Not Simply a Wedding Banquet
美丽少年
Mickey Chen
A frank and candid portrait of the lives and family relations of three gay teenagers in Taipei. One breaks up with his boyfriend before going abroad to study, the other craves for love, and the third one moonlights as a crossdresser. A bold statement against norms in a Confucean society.

In 2011, Mickey Chen wrote an autobiography about his torn-apart family and his life as the gay eldest son. Since he passed away in December 2018, this documentary film of the same name was left unfinished but shows enough promise and paints a heartbreaking portrait of his troubled family.
