Synopsis
A 6-DoF interactive shadow-puppetry animation documentary based on the witness testimony of Fred Him-San Chin, a political prisoner of Taiwan’s White Terror era in the 1970s.
CHIN, a promising Malaysian student, was wrongly accused as bombing suspect and communist. He was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment and sepereated from his family for decades. We intend to adapt CHIN’s testimony into an immersive experience that tells an adventurous story of a boy’s journey of leaving and returning home.
