Cine-East: East Asian Cinema [Taiwan]

Film Screening: "The Rocking Sky" (Zhang Zhaowei, 2015, 98 min, Taiwan, in Mandarin w/ English subtitles, Color, Blu-Ray) / In the early days of World War II, during which the Republic of China has suffered immeasurably at the hands of invading Japanese forces. At that time, R.O.C only had 300 combat capable aircrafts while Japanese Air Force had over 2,000. Essentially, "The Rocking Sky" depicts not only the R.O.C pilots' bravery and fate that have already faded away but also mourns for the romance that buried with the only thing worth fighting for at this darkest hour. / Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShyBmItRYrE
