Chou was born in Keelung, Taiwan in 1969. She earned a B.A. in Philosophy from National Chengchi University in 1992. She worked as a journalist before becoming an indie film director.
She entered into film making because of her attraction to the combination of content and form. She has been heralded as the most talented documentary director in the recent years of Taiwan.[1] She has also received various festival awards around the world for films.
Chou and Hoho Liu (Chinese: 劉芸后) are an openly lesbian couple.[2] Chou "is one of the few openly lesbian filmmakers in the world, and the only one in Taiwan," according to AfterEllen.[3] She is currently filming a six-film series called the Six Asian Cities Rainbow Project (亞洲六城彩虹計劃). She is trying to finish as quickly as possible and worries she will go missing while filming, since many of the locations have rules against films presenting LGBT content.[4]
