Wounds

The story

The documentary "Wounds – Veterans' Stories" primarily focuses on the veterans who came to Taiwan in 1949 with the memories and traumas of the civil war. The film is conducted along with two story lines: One is conveyed through the personal accounts of the veterans in Taiwan telling their memorable stories of migrating to Taiwan, while the other one follows the story of the Borough Chief of Xianghe Lane in Kaohsiung who escorts the ashes of deceased veterans back home. Through the record of the veterans' stories, the impacts of war on individuals and society as a whole is revealed.
