Released on parole, Wen-hsiung seeks a fresh start in Sanyi, learning woodcraft and quickly earning his master’s favor. However, a series of unexpected events challenge his resolve. In the 1970s, as Taiwan grappled with diplomatic setbacks, the government promoted patriotism through popular culture. This film stands out as iconic, with Teresa TENG’s theme song evoking deep nostalgia for the simplicity of small-town life amidst the rapid pace of modernization.
