| 2019 | John Hsu
Inspired by a video game that also spawned a Netflix series with a different plot, this chilling melodrama is set at a Taiwanese high school in 1962, during a repressive time of martial law. When a rebellious teacher who leads a subversive “banned book” club suddenly disappears, two student members of the group launch a search that eventually takes them into a spooky spirit realm of ghosts and monsters. This visual stunner won the 2020 Taipei Film Award for Best Narrative Feature. “Absorbing and entertaining…Surprisingly moving final moments.” –Variety. Subtitles. 102 min.
