Directed by Namio Yuasa
Nightclub singer Chun-mei falls for violinist Cheng-hsiung, who writes her a birthday melody. Her father's illness, debt, and violence force them apart. Directed by Japanese filmmaker Yuasa Namio with a transnational cast, the Mandarin feature is followed by a Taiwanese-language trailer. When the same faces and scenes speak in different languages, dubbing alters character, emotional distance, market position, and cinematic identity, while the gap invites us to imagine its lost Taiwanese soundtrack.
