BEYOND THE ANTI-DUPONT MOVEMENT: PORTRAITS OF SOME SOCIAL ACTIVISTS (RESTORATION)

The fight against environmental injustice in Taiwan reached a turning point when plans for a massive DuPont chemical plant threatened the wetlands of Changhua. What followed was a 13-month grassroots campaign that united farmers, academics, journalists, and youth in a historic act of resistance.

Through interviews with key figures in Taiwan’s environmental and social justice movements, the film revisits the Anti-DuPont Movement and its legacy, offering a rare insight into the courage, costs, and impact of activism that continues to inspire generations.
