The conflict between tradition and the modern world are brought into focus in this heartwarming, and at times heartbreaking, family-friendly tale about a young boy from the Indigenous Tao people of Taiwan’s Orchid Island, or Lanyu.

The film screening will be followed by a discussion with Syaman Rapongan (Ta-u), Paelabang Danapan (Sun Ta-chuan) (Puyama), Russell Leong, Chia-hua Lin, and moderator Lisa Yin Han.

The event, a presentation of the Indigeneity in the Oceanic Commons: Reclaiming Relations from Taiwan to Hawai’i symposium, is in conjunction with the fall 2023 ASU Humanities Lab Mediating Ocean Futures and is part of ASU Humanities Week. It is sponsored in part by the Film and Media Studies Program in the Department of English at ASU.
