Summer Frost, grievances hard to eliminate. Every place has its unforgettable bloody memorial day. Zhang Ji'an is eternally marked by May 13, 1969, when Malays and Chinese engaged in an all-out violent conflict following the Malaysian elections, resulting in countless casualties. A little girl, watching Cantonese opera, nearly fell victim during the chaos, escaping the massacre by hiding in the backstage. Half a century later, having married far away, she encounters the elections again, haunted by memories, her past spirit lingering, as time and space fold over an unmarked solitary grave, shadows appearing both real and illusory, leading people to inevitably wander down winding paths. Adapted from real events, this film features magical realism, blending folk beliefs, theatrical arts, and historical memories, compelling viewers to confront perhaps never-healed wounds. Opening film of the Golden Horse Film Festival.
