The Sunlight in Winter

冬日晨光

Always the good daughter, Chieh-Ju meets Wai-bun, who has recently moved to Taiwan from Hong Kong, and the lovers soon contemplate marriage. During the wedding preparations, an unexpected encounter with Wai-bun’s old acquaintance from Hong Kong causes turbulence in the relationship, when secrets of Wai-bun’s past surface. Chieh-Ju realises that there is much she does not understand about this stranger from this strange place with a strange history, and her ideas of love, honesty, loyalty and goodness face an unprecedented challenge. This short offers a rare discussion of contemporary sexuality set against the recent social upheavals of the region.
