Introduction

During the period of imposition of Martial Law and The White Terror in 1950s, a student named Ko is rounded up by the police for attending a clandestine political study group. In captivity, he unintentionally betrays his good friend Chen Cheng-i by revealing his name, causing his friend's eventual execution. Now, 30 years later, Ko wants to find his friend's grave and apologize. This quest for forgiveness leads him on an exploration of the new, modernized Taiwan, where the traces of its traumatic past are obliterated by capitalist landscape.

Data

Director	Wan Jen Born in Taipei, Taiwan in 1950, Wan Jen made his short film debut, The Taste of Apple, as part of the omnibus film The Sandwich Man (1983) with Hou Hsiao-hsien and Tseng Chuang-hsiang. Wan’s work has always been politically sensitive and critical of the impacts of industrialization and political corruption, and has been powerful in challenging how the past is presented and whose story is told.
