Taiwan as Seen through the Millenium Comic Wave: Changes and Expectations under the Dance of Time

千禧漫波

Watching Millennium Waves at the Sydney Opera House in Australia was my first encounter with this production on the big screen. Through Shu Qi's portrayal of Vicky, I witnessed the chaos and agitation of Taiwan around the millennium, and mirrored the struggles, choices and growth of Taiwanese people through time. The smoke, tunnels and snow symbolise relationships, egos and colonised memories, while Vicky's transformation echoes my hopes for Taiwan's future - may we all learn to step out of our confusion, just as she has done, to embrace the beauty and freedom of the future with gusto.
