Description
CANADA PREMIERE | Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale | Dir: Wei Te-Sheng| Taiwan (2011) | 276:00 | English subtitles
Released in 2011, Wei Te-Sheng’s “Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale” marks a pivotal moment in Taiwanese Cinema. A historical epic drama that follows the Japanese occupation of Taiwan (Wushe Incident) and the subsequent uprisings by the indigenous Seediq people, “Warriors of the Rainbow” re-imagines the traumatic history of Taiwan through spectacular violence and melodrama. Ambitious in scale and vision, the film is Taiwan’s most expensive production, drawing together 400 technicians and over 1500 hired actors across Asia to realize its epic action set pieces.
