Taiwanese artist and filmmaker Yu Cheng-Ta first met FAMEME in New York during the launch of the Museum of Durian in 2019. Yu was amazed by the Malaysian durian tycoon’s campy, thorny character, and decided to make a documentary about his life.
In this talk, Yu shares about his experience working closely with FAMEME, and shares tales of the latter’s struggles with his wealthy family, as well as his efforts, in the past few years, to carve out a durian empire of his own.
