Synopsis
Opening Film, Best Director and Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution: Music and Art Design, Taipei Film FestivalNominated for 5 Golden Horse Awards including Best New Performer, Best Art Direction and Best Original Film Score
Hsiao Ya-chuan’s follow-up to Taipei Exchanges (HKAFF 7th) touches upon family, history and memory to reveal the invisible ties binding generations of Taiwan people together. Discovering that he is seriously ill, 60-year-old Fan Pao-te refuses treatment, and instead leaves Taiwan to go to Japan with his son. Their goal: to find Pao-te’s father, who abandoned him when he was only a child. Meanwhile, a mysterious young man who’s somehow connected to Pao-te arrives in Taiwan on a journey of his own. Moving between Taiwan and Japan, and the past and the present, Hsiao Ya-chuan weaves an atmospheric and emotional cinema tapestry worthy of his mentor – and the film’s executive producer – Hou Hsiao-hsien.
