War is more than just conflicting ideologies. A thought-provoking statement made by the director of HEBEI, TAPEI, in the form of this deeply personal documentary about her father Li, who fought for both the Nationalists and the Communists during the Chinese Civil War. He eventually ended up in Taipei, Taiwan, when the war drew to a close, far away from his birthplace in Hebei. Armed with nothing but a camera, daughter Li decided to retrace father Li’s footsteps, to experience and document what is left of his memories. Juxtaposing her father’s shocking anecdotes with footage of her journey through China, Li paints a convincing picture of how much the country has changed since the war
“This thought-provoking documentary not merely presents a father-daughter reconciliation but further provides a mediation between the young generation in Taiwan and their most incomprehensible aspects in reality.” – Ian Yang, CinemAsia programmer
