Few people know that Taiwan once sheltered over 2,000 Vietnamese refugees between 1977 and 1988. Although Taiwan’s refugee intake was small compared to other nations, the Penghu camp offered decent living conditions, vocational training and stipends, and the Taiwanese government even allowed refugees to move freely within Penghu and seek temporary job opportunities. Over the 12 years, 106 refugee babies were born in the camp, forming a strong bond with this land. This documentary revisits the circumstances Taiwan faced on the international stage at the time, and follows the stories of those babies, now all grown up, and their return to Penghu to rediscover their roots.
