Ismene Ting, a native of Taiwan, graduated from the University of California, Berkley, majoring in comparative literature. A talented actress and director, she is the chief member of Taiwan's 'Performance Workshop', a theatre group that has pioneered the use of improvisational performance throughout Asia. The stage works Ting has participated in are considered to be some of the most exciting Chinese theatre in the world. Representative works directed by her include Love On a Two-Way Street; Welcome to Shangrila!; The Taxi driver, the Gangster, the Dog and His Wives; We Won't Pay! and Come Dance With Me.

"While most people are searching for their own Shangri-la, I hope to express such a reality through film."

Ting's YNFP film will be based on a couple's search for their spiritual home in Shangri-La.
