Winds of September is a poignant exploration of youth and loss set against the backdrop of the Taiwan baseball scandal. Lin Shu-Yu's semi-autobiographical lens captures that bittersweet essence of adolescence. The film meanders through the lives of Yen and Tang, encapsulating the frantic energy of their last high school year. There's this rawness in the performances - these young actors manage to convey a sense of nostalgia, hope, and despair all at once. The pacing feels intentionally languid at times, mirroring those long summer days that seem to stretch on forever. You get a solid mix of humor and heartache, especially in those moments of midnight swims and awkward crushes. It’s a quiet film but resonates deeply with anyone who remembers that transitional phase of life.
