The Black Kite
2021, Chinese. Directed by Lee I-hui.
At the end of WWII, the Nationalist party of Republic of China, also known as the Kuomintang (KMT), took control of Taiwan and imposed martial law for 38 years. This period is known as the White Terror, where anyone suspected go being a Communist agent was hunted down. Through a 7-year-old girl’s point of view, The Black Kite brings us back to the innocent, yet high-handed time of the 1960s Taiwan.
