Is death a destruction, or a liberation?

Ah-de, a former social activist turned taxi driver after the tragic loss of his child, crosses paths with Ma Le, a young Indigenous man in Taipei. Driven to despair by exploitation, Ma Le accidentally kills a site superintendent. Unknowingly giving him a ride on that fateful night, Ah-de’s destiny becomes entwined with his. Haunted by Ma Le’s ghost, they journey together through Taipei’s ruins, seeking reconciliation. The final chapter of the “Super Trilogy” deeply explores politics, social movements, and life itself.
