Lee Teng-hui

Godspeed Taiwan is an experimental mid-length documentary that explores the history of Taiwan through an outsider, 21st political lens. Taiwan is the the only modern democracy not recognized by the United Nations, and remains divided between those who want to establish closer ties to China, and those who strive for true independence and autonomy.

A suicidal Japanese girl gets a lesson in Taiwanese history from the spirit of former Chinese leader Lee Teng-hui.
