The Heroes and the Bear
1988, English. Directed by Ching-chieh Lin.
In quiet campuses everywhere, incidents of kidnapping of school children occurred one after another. When the school was ordered to talk to parents about [binding], the society became uneasy and public opinion was in an uproar. Fang Hua, a popular stage star, raised her daughter Liyun independently due to a failed marriage. Liyun is very well-behaved, but because mother and daughter spend less time together and more separation, they are a family with flawed family relationships. Taxi driver Xiao Liao once bravely stopped a kidnapping case, but suffered heavy losses, which made him feel that it was difficult to be a good person in this society. Moreover, due to his own limited education, it is difficult to survive in this diverse society. The only comfort was his lover Xiulan.
