Where the River Flows

The film follows Gei, a college student living in Tamsui with his mother, Zhen Ying. Gei's father, a nineties idol known as Bone, vanished 24 years ago, leaving behind a half-finished song. This loss creates tension between Gei and his mother, who forbids him from playing the guitar or pursuing music. Despite his own financial struggles, Gei often helps his friends, which leads to further complications in his relationship with his mother and girlfriend.

The narrative takes a turn when Gei, after a night of drinking, rescues a man from the Tamsui River who bears an uncanny resemblance to his missing father. This unexpected reunion brings both challenges and changes to the family dynamic, as Bone pushes Gei to help him reclaim his past. The film's exploration of family ties and personal aspirations makes it relevant for fans of drama and romance.
