Overall

Competitive section

In a ruined American military dormitory, two mixed-race children of the U.S. military in Taiwan, one speaking Hakka and the other Taiwanese, uncover a history their faces and words cannot anchor. Through hypnotic narrative, the work resists fixed ways of seeing and speaking, and gives shape to voices and bodies long held in silence.

IFFDAY's share grows with the people who rated the film here: n ÷ (n + 10), up to 60% from 15 people, and nothing under 5. The rest is the average of the other platforms, each first converted to a 10-point scale and weighted by how many people rated the film there. For films made in China, Douban weighs less, the more so the earlier China is listed among the production countries. Algorithm iffday-combined-v2.
