CORPS & ÂME

A moving cinematic epic spanning seventy years, unveiling the hidden bonds and intertwined destinies between French missionaries and Taiwan’s Indigenous peoples deep within the mountains.

This documentary tells the story of hundreds of French and Swiss priests who, since 1952, lived their lives among Indigenous communities in Taiwan’s eastern mountains. Through testimonies and Franco-Taiwanese collaboration, it aims to preserve this little-known, 70-year history and emotion, highlighting the deep ties between Taiwan’s democracy, cultural growth, and Indigenous language preservation.
