That’s the well-trodden and evocative theme of Shih-Ching Tsou’s debut feature Left Handed Girl – a contemporary drama which wears its fairytale elements fashionably on its sleeves. The title refers to five-year old I-Jing (Nina Ye), an adorable little girl in thrall to a bizarre notion: that the Devil has somehow possessed her southpaw. The culprit behind this premature existential crisis is I-Jing’s elderly grandfather, who doesn’t realise the consequences of his own poker-faced teasing. Things get worse when her left hand accidentally figures into a legitimate – if comic – tragedy: one with a body count. Left-Handed Girl (2025)Shu-Fen’s night market makes for a fascinating labyrinthine backdrop: it’s a haven for eccentric hard-sell artists, and Tsou cultivates an atmosphere of gentle, rubbernecking curiosity.
