WHO’LL STOP THE RAIN

This directorial debut feature narrates a 1994 Taiwanese student protest fighting for freedom and undeniable love.
新銳導演蘇奕瑄首部劇情長片，描述一段青春革命成長愛情故事。

In the 1994 post-martial law period in Taiwan, the students were in the midst of protest. Frustrated by the implicit obedience principle of the school, Wei, a female college student, joins the strike to fight for their freedom of expression. During the protest, Wei is slowly attracted to Qing, whose boyfriend, Guang, is the leader of the student strike. As passionate protest enflames personal desires, the chemistry between Wei and Qing gradually becomes vivid. However, Guang also shows a romantic interest in Wei.

Both the strike and their triangular relationship go wild and vibrant. The harder they love, the more hurt and damage they experience. The power and love struggles are closely intertwined. Eventually, Wei realizes her desires and emotions are unconstrained as their creative freedom. For her, it’s a protest of liberty and an inner fight for her self-awakening.
