Island in Between

About This Movie

So, 'Island in Between' dives into this really fascinating slice of life on Kinmen, those outer islands of Taiwan that are just a stone's throw from China. You get this raw, almost haunting atmosphere as it explores the remnants of the Chinese Civil War. It feels like you’re walking through history, with those war relics almost whispering stories of the past. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to soak in the landscape and the lingering tensions. It's not just about the conflict, though; there's a sense of everyday life and resilience that runs through it. I found the practical effects of nature and time on these structures really striking. It’s a thoughtful piece, capturing the complexities of identity in a place caught between worlds.
