Taiwan Docs

"Wansei" refers to those Japanese who were born in Taiwan during the colonial period. After WWII, they were repatriated to Japan. Since then, the painful stories about separation have occurred throughout Taiwan and Japan.

Wansei Back Home took 12 years to conduct the interviews and five years to film. It tells the stories of not only Wansei themselves but their friendships, family ties and bravery when facing the harsh adversity.
