00:00:56,990 --> 00:01:00,127
Watan, your smile is too big.
That's bad for selling the vegetables
Kid, I said not to smile
Okay!
Hold your smile first
One more
00:01:10,704 --> 00:01:13,807
That's right, sadder Uglier
Put on a sadder look
so people will buy from granny
when they see the newspapers
Kid, don't hold granny
We are very close
And I didn't smile
Got it---
Look, this is nice
Granny Granny, this is nice
Your veggies will all sell out
- This pic is really good
- Awesome
Wait---Aren't these my dad's peaches?
Aren't they for your grandma?
Your peaches are too sweet
My granny will get diabetes from that
If you try to sell them at the tourists spot,
won't police catch you?
We could just run
Yeah, we are kids The police won't go after us
- Watan
- What?
How much is a peach?
Around 50NT
When people see
that we're dark skinned aboriginal kids,
we can sell at 80NT
Do we get a cut?
Bro, of course
10NT out of one
Oh, no- Busted
So what? Your dad is very kind
Don't freak out
Hello, gramps
Don't call my dad gramps
What're you three doing here?
We're going to the tourists spot
to sell veggies from Watan's granny
Granny's cabbages?
Yup
I thought that reporter spread the news
in the paper
We sell them to have more allowance
Oh, no, my peaches!
Each costs more than 100NT Don't squash them like this
Seriously?
Of course My family produces high quality peaches
So they are expensive
Chen Hao, don't lie
You're going to junior high school soon-
You're taking it too easy
How can you compete
with students off the mountain?
They are good
How can you take care of your dad afterward?
He's very good, top three from our class
Our teacher said he's so good that he understands everything
he doesn't need to review nor write homework
Who doesn't know your class has only 6 students
Top one, two and three
You cover the top three, right?
Okay---stop talking
- Let me send you to teacher Lawa
- Oh, no
- Big bro!
- Come on, hop on---We walked for a long time
It's all your fault!
We Action Buddha needs some info and pics
There's only 1 pic on the table
Because we don't take pics
That's fine
We'll take his pics later
Granny, the file said
both your son and husband passed away
So you tend this big garden all by yourself?
Yes
You have to take care of everything alone
It's difficult It must tire you out
Do you have only one grandson?
I have an older grandson
studying off the mountain
- He's mischievous, too
- Mischievous?
This one looks naughty
He's cute
I'll serve you some soup
I ate already, granny
I'm sorry- It might not suit your taste
No---It' fine, only that I ate
Then I'll give you a glass of water
Thanks, granny

No kidding Formosan muntjac- Let's go
muntjac---
That
Look, it's broken
It's so small
Hurry up, you are hard to please
You should be satisfied with what you have
And it stinks
This is the way it's supposed to be
My brother used to hunt
He told me that you should take what you have
That's stupid
Grab that rope

He eats Formosan muntjac, too
How much do you want for this?
- Maybe 1500NT

My dad's worker asks for 2 grands

- Yes.
Come on!
It's tasty- 1200, boss
- This is the last time.
- Okay.
- Let me grab the money.
- Okay.
Thank you, boss.
I told you to sell it for 2 grands
He set the price. Otherwise you can't sell anything
1200 is a good deal
Life as a hunter is difficult,
we should grow fruits instead
You do that, go
Sing your own future
Tell your own dreams
Sing it out loud all the same
Am I good?
Can I release an album?
Sure
Thank you.
Aren't you that guy?
My future isn't a dream
- Do you think he's Tom Chang? -No
Who is he? You're that---
"Oh yeah, oh yeah" guy
Why are you here?
Enough. He's a good friend I just met.
Impossible
Do you know him?
Yeah.
Isn't he the most famous singer from your tribe?
Liar!
My dad is, not him
Dad's like our tribe's Mayday
Mayflower
Do you know what's our song?
What's your song?
A beautiful and young aboriginal girl
lives on a high mountain
She grabs a big pole every day
doing the pole dance
Do you know this song?
This classical song is so lame.
You should be embarrassed.
Do you know who he is?
He's an alcoholic from our tribe.
- Really?
His liver is going to burst
Shut up
I'll punch you guys.
Come and hit me.
"Oh yeah, oh yeah" guy
I'll come to see you and teach me play guitar.
Where are you going?
Let's go while the teacher is not here
You three!
Hello, teacher.
Only show up at the snack time
Go to your classroom now
I told you to use the front door
Why did you take the back door-
The teacher yelled at us
I didn't force you- You can't be mad
- No, you can't -Forget it
Why are you mad?
Yes, the teacher is so nice to us
Where were you, Watan?
Fishing?
You never take me with you
Like I will-
Talking about fishing all the time
Beetle.
Wow
Let's scare them
Go---
You are annoying
I'm doing my homework
Be quiet, American!
I'm doing my homework
Look
Here come the snacks
Be quiet
Who is it?
It's him that's loud
Who is?
- Watan.
Watan
Who is "Finished"?
Teacher, blame it on Chuang and Watan
It's not me- It's Watan
They scare them with a beetle
It's your beetle, ok?
Yes, it's mine- But YOU used it to scare people
That's for them to admire
Both of you are the same
No one can bring insects here from now on-
Got it?
Ok
Si Yu and Ai Jia, help me with the nuggets?
Sure
Here, give it to me
Here---I have no money left
Not money, candies?
Hurry up
The beetle- Give it to her
I'll punch you- Beetle---
What then?
Communication Book
Give it to me
I haven't signed it for days
It's 28 days
Talked back to your teacher in class?
Where?
Where? Here!
I'm illiterate
It was the teacher who talked back.
And you raised your voices.
Nope, I was born loud.
When can you let the teacher praise you?
She did- Isn't this it?
Where were you?
We were going to the tourist spot
to sell veggies-
Selling veggies at the tourist spot?
Hey! The tourist spot?
Yes, at Lishan
When I grow up, I'll take you there
Sure
Thank you
Ok
You can hear different voices when you travel
This is a song that I heard
on the 3rd day of my South Pacific journey
In the northern tribe,
the aboriginal girls use their own language
to sing church songs
Granny
I know you're upset that I suspend the school
But you're alone with my brother without any help.
I can help...
Brother
Granny
Is brother coming back?
Are you coming back?
Granny, don't be angry.
I can help you with the garden
And I can take odd jobs
I can take care of our family
I'll let you be and do whatever you like.
Granny
Brother
Granny will be fine in a minute.
Really.
Shoes?
No, listen
Look
- And these...
- Why do you have so much money?
1200 from Formosan muntjac
You stole this, right?
No
And that...
- What?
The low income family savings from the teacher in my account.
I have almost 30 grands
Stop lying, 30 grands my ass
It's true.
30 grands
If granny get sick,
we can pay her bills
What did you just say?
- Granny get sick?
Nonsense
Granny, don't eavesdrop.
That's your specialty.
I also want to buy---
those shoes with the "check" logo
What shoes with the check logo?
The expensive ones
over 2 grands with the check logo.
Why do you want to buy those?
I-
What shoes?
- Didn't I just buy you a pair at Lishan last time?
- Granny
Get out- Don't---
Are they ruined?
Please
Granny, sit down
What? Are the shoes I bought ruined?
No---I don't want some knockoffs
I want the real deal
The real "check" shoes
Knockoffs
You are the same
What did I do?
Don't stay up too late
You got work to do tomorrow
I know, I'll get up
You got scolded
Ok, granny, go to bed now.
We have some men's talk
What men's talk?
Men's talk it is- Hurry up
- Ok, go to bed, granny -Go---
Bye, go to bed.
You kids never listen
Hey, Hu, get up.
Go to work.
Granny
Is that your grandson?
Yes
He's so cute
What's his name?
Jia Hu
How old is he?
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,500
Graduated yet?
Granny has a great life
He still has to go off the mountain,
looking for a job
You have so much land
And you still let him go off to work
Just ask him to help out here
Keep up with the good work.
Hu?
Wow
All grown up
Why did you want to come back to the mountain?
Teacher
Actually, I think of coming back all the time
It's ok
You are back
You can take care of granny and help Watan out
You silly
Don't think too much
Ok?
This is your home
My brother is awesome
As soon as he got back yesterday
All the old or broken stuff at home
were fixed by him
Besides
His arms are as strong as a bull
I think your brother is a farm hand
My father is the cool one
He's our tribe's Mayday
Mayflower is more like it
When my Bday comes on this Thursday
he'll get me a huge 28-inch cake
Do you think it's a TV screen?
I think your dad has to save
for two years to afford it
My dad is better than your dads
He buys me presents all the time
It doesn't need to be my Bday
Yes
You came to our place to have Kentucky's?
I asked my dad to do it.
- Yes.
You dad is so old, like a grandpa
Come, everyone, eat
Here, have some fruit, Chen Hao
You idiot, don't call my dad an old man
- Old man -Your dad is like a grandpa
My name is Lin Shan
My nickname is Lil Dingdong
I want to play in NBA
My idol is Jeremy Lin
It's Lin En Ya's turn
My name is En Ya
I come from Sqoyaw Tribe
You never met me
Because I left the tribe when I was little
I don't like naughty kids
So you have to behave
Whose turn is it?
Teacher Lawa
I don't want to do it
- Come on--- -Alright alright
Come on
I---ok, 1, 2, 3, 4
My name is Lawa
I love kids the most
Hope you all are happy
and behave every single day---
Walking tires me out
What the heck- Go home now.
- Lin Hsiao Long
- It's your dad, Lin Shan
- This is super annoying- Shut up
Go and sit down, Watan- Hurry up
Close the door, En Ya
Why are you closing the door?
You are drunk and messing around again
I'm not drunk, I only want to see Lin Shan
Go home.
- What are you doing?
He's wasted
What wasted? Shut up
What the heck?
Don't you see these kids are in class?
I want to see my kid-
Why are you closing the door?
- Enough! Lower your voice-
- Go back- We are in class
He'll go home
Look at him- Does he make any progress in school?
I don't think so
Does he, teacher? No.
They don't charge anything
to let your kid to study here
What are you still bitching about?
What classes?
What? Think you are really something?
Sitting in a wheelchair is something?
That's rude.
What are you talking about?
Lin Shan
Look at your great son
Go after him quick
Go home- Are you done?
What are you doing?
Do this farce at home
Watch out, you guys
Aren't you annoying enough?
Let's leave
Don't drag me
You are embarrassing
- Aren't you annoying enough?
- Can you not be so wasted every day?
So what?
- Shut up - Don't drag me
Not so loud
Don't push me
Let's talk at home
Talk about what?
Teacher
This farce today
reminds me of my dad's same behavior
when I was little
You're not scared?
Not really
Can you believe an alcoholic?
But they were so mean to you
If I were you, I'd have quit long time ago
What can I do?
Who'd take care of this place if I weren't here?
These damn kids are so naughty
Just let them be
This is nonsense
Don't touch it, it's expensive.
What's up? What are you doing?
Nothing
Is this expensive, dad?
You mean ukulele?
It's a bit cheaper than a guitar
Can you play it?
Me? Of course.
Otherwise, why would I buy it?
Then can you teach me tonight?
Sure, no problem
So will you sing your own song
when you are off the mountain?
But your mom nags at me every day
How can I ever possibly finish it?
She nags only because you drink
It's not true-
I'm always sober when I write songs
Right, girls?
No
Yes?
No
Then don't drink when you come back tonight
It's so warm.
Yeah.
Let's go swimming
Why are you running?
Watan
Lin Shan
Lin Shan
Big handsome boy.
- Watan
What are you sniffing at?
- You're sober now.
Why do you keep talking about drinking?
Because you were so mean yesterday
Your dad drank more than I do
He went to heaven already, right?
Don't be like him in the future, ok?
- No way, alcohol stinks -Ok?
Dingdong
Is this your ukulele?
- Yes.
Wow
Your dad is nice and handsome
Of course
Driving this car is cool,
unlike someone's transporter
Bullshit,
my dad's transporter is cooler than this
- Enough! Stop messing with my dad
- Ok---go to school now
Enough chatting
Bye
Bye
Your dad got you ukulele this time
You didn't even master flute last time
That's right.
- You lazy kid.
So your parents made up?
Who knows? They are like this all the time
Quarrel, made up, quarrel, made up
Hu, you are back
Yes, brother
How's it going out there?
It was alright
Yeah?
I have some works here- Help me out
Find me a land- We'll make a big profit
What do you think?
Granny
Hey
Is that grandpa's land?
Yes
How come you never use it?
Some people want to rent it but I said no.
They might make a mess
Let me use it
When you are back from the army then
I still have one year here
We'll see.
It's on me
Don't you lie
and make me pay later
Here's 1 grand
Don't talk nonsense- Hurry up
Can I take some more?
Your brother is very nice to you to give you 1 grand each time.
It's 3 grands
Then I'll take more?
Ok, hurry up and place them
How much is this?
Ok, wait a second
This one, plus this one.
- Okay.
Kids don't drink energy drinks
It's fine
It's 420
Do you need some more?
1 grand
This is 1 grand
I took the wrong stuff
This is for Watan
This... Here you go, Watan
This one, see if it fits.
Let's try it on at home
- I just bought it there - I don't want to
You three
It's late- Why are you still here?
Go to the after-school class now
Hold on, let me wrap first, please?
Look, teacher
Which underwear looks better,
my brother's or mine?
Which underwear looks better?
You are---?
En Ya, this is my grandson
You fought a lot when you were little
Chen Jia Hu?
You're back?
I remember you now- You bullied me all the time
YOU bullied me all the time
Well, you always won
You were too short
Don't pick on my brother
He's strong like a bull
Bull my ass
Ok, enough, go to class now
Ok---
Go to class
You guys go to the class right now
What are you doing?
Give us a ride, then- Give us a ride
You guys get off of my scooter
Don't touch it, Li De Tai- It's expensive
What?
I want to order "The Night That I Think Of You"
It's too difficult
Then I want to order "War Song"
- That's difficult, too
- Stop
Then I want "My Future Is Not A Dream"
That's so old
"The Busy Bee"
That's too childish
Lil Dingdong just bought this ukulele Do you think he knows every song?
Of course, he's our tribe's Mayday
- Ok, enough - Then "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"
It's even more childish than "The Busy Bee"
Then you should know your dad's "Urban Latino"
He's teaching me only tonight
Our tribe's Mayday my ass- You suck
Why are you talking?
- Finished your homework?
- I did
Everyone's finished but you
Finish your homework
or you don't get snacks, I'm telling you
En Ya
- Hurry up - Here comes the snacks
En Ya
Write your homework
Don't rush- Take your turn
What the heck?
- Teacher - I told you to behave
It's fine
It's all your fault, Chuang
- Ok, no worries - You messed up again
Watan Help me bring the wheelchair here
I'll beat you up
You idiot Told you
No snacks next time
Help me lock it
Don't make me kick you
Watan
Help me up
If you didn't rush this wouldn't have happened
You're out of your mind
The teacher got hurt cos you rushed
It wasn't me
- You're all the same
- Enough
I'm fine
I'm fine now
- Teacher
- What's up?
Do you need to treat your wound?
I'll treat it later
I fall off the wheelchair from time to time
My whole arm used to be covered in blood
Doesn't it hurt?
A little bit
Does it hurt like this?
No
Does it---
Ouch! You press too hard
I want to tell you something
My brother gave me 3 grands today
- Really?
- Yes
Actually I've saved almost 8 grands
in my little box
Wow, you are richer than I am
I'll get you a present when I'm off the mountain
Sure
What kind of present do you want?
Anything will do, but not too expensive
Ok
- I'll get you a tiara
- Why not?
Because you look nicer with your hair down
Really?
Don't tie it up all the time
- Sure, nothing expensive-
100 is enough - Ok
Don't I have a job?
Who pays for their tuition then?
I can just move to Taipei
with my band members
I'll just send the money back
I'm starving
Go away
You drink too much
What? You're loaded?
Lin Shan tells everyone
he's going to play in NBA
Are you daydreaming with your son?
Just give me my money fast Only your dream counts?
You tell everyone
that you're going to release an album
When will that day come?
What did you say?
Are you hurt? Let me see
It's ok---
What are you doing?
Enough of this farce!

Watan Don't walk so fast
What if you trip?
Be careful
Do you want me to carry you, Lil Dingdong?
Are we there yet?
Almost there
You said so one hour ago
Lil Dingdong, you're no better
You're lazier than a sloth
You said you'd carry it yourself
You are so lucky
You refused to eat in the day
Because it was hot
I had no appetite
Everything tastes yummy up here
Look, I had two bowls, too
It's fine- Kids should eat more
- Uncle
- Yes
Do you eat a lot of pasta in France?
Yes, a lot- I'm a great cook
I'll cook you some next time
Can I visit you in France?
Ok, I'll bring you with me
Because when I grow up,
I want to travel the world
Oh, really? How brave
You're not afraid?
Have you ever gone abroad?
Yes
Really? Where was it?
Hsiao Liouciou
You idiot
That's not abroad
It's in Taiwan, you silly
How would I know?
Besides, I don't want to go abroad
No travel around the world
I only want to stay with my brother
Mountains are good enough
Thank you- Ok, bye
What's up? Still nothing?
- Have you looked elsewhere?
- Any word?
I assumed he'd be here
- I didn't know there's no after-school class today
- I went off the mountain
to get him a cake already
- Yes, it's his Bday
- How could this happen?
Ok, don't you worry
- I'll call everyone
- Ok
Actually, it's my Bday
Really?
Oh, yeah
Your dad promised to get you
a 28-inch cake
You're lying again
Even if I got lost on the mountain
I don't think my parents
would be worried about me
How can your parents not be worried about you?
Besides, you look so cute
If you were missing,
your parents would be so sad
Yeah, you're not cute when you frown
let me give you a present
Happy birthday!
And---wait---
Make wishes
Now you can make wishes
Your wishes will be granted here
I made a wish last time when I was here
That is to marry my wife
It came true
- Really?
- Really.
Then I want to make my wishes
My first wish is
that mom and dad stop fighting
and can be as in love as you do
My second wish is
that dad's album can be a big hit
My third wish is---
Can we eat the cake now, mom?
- Wait for your brother first, ok?
- You brother is missing- Can we wait?
Wow- Seriously?
Look how she wears her dress
Won't it get dirty?
No way
Come closer, ok?
Yes---
My mom said she doesn't have any wedding photos
Why not?
Cos she was pregnant with me
before she got married
Don't you laugh
That's probably the reason why
Then I'd like my parents
to have a wedding photo shoot on the mountain
Ready---1, 2, 3
Sister
Very nice
Come down
Wait a minute
Come- Together
Ready? Ok
Ok, ready---1, 2, 3
Wow
Ok?
Professional
Great- Next set
Ok, smile, Tayal people
Be happy- Smile
Ok- Ready---1, 2, 3
Is the watermelon sweet?
Very sweet
Thanks
Thank you, Ah Wei
Let's go again next time
Your Formosan muntjac is huge
We hunt again next time?
There are plenty on the mountain
But don't we have classes?
Only a few periods left
Lin Shan
Don't hit the kid
Where did you go? Say something
Where did you go?
You have no right to hit me
How dare you to talk to me like that?
Enough- Don't hit the kid
He's already back!
You have no right to hit me
You have no right to hit me
So where did you go?
Don't you know we were so worried about you?
We'd been looking for you all night
If you were gone, what should we do?
Do you know that we bought you a cake yesterday?
I don't care
I could care less!
What did you just say?
I don't care about your ukulele
Don't care about the cake
If you didn't drink, didn't fight,
none of this would've happened
Lil Dingdong
Reason with him- Why did you hit the kid?
So the ambulance doesn't answer my need?
Yelling outside like this wouldn't work
I've been calling 911
If you don't feel well, talk to the doc
Don't yell like this
Go there and sit down- Sit---
Be careful
Watch where you walk
Is this your uncle?
Of course not
He's so wasted
What the heck?
What are you doing?
Sit tight
Damn
Oh, please
What's wrong, granny?
- She got a toothache - Granny can't talk?
Then you can't sing karaoke at night
You can't sing now- Serve you right
What are you doing here?
Me?
I'm here to get Teacher Lawa's medicine
I saw you everywhere every day
I'm not everywhere
I passed the recommendation
Impressive
How about you?
I suspended school-
Now waiting to go to the military
Suspended school?
What are you doing this afternoon?
Help out at the after-school class
How about you?
I'm not busy
Come and help out then
Help you out with what?
I can't teach ABCD
What ABCD
Be straightforward with love- Just take her home
What?
You drink too much, alcoholic
Come on
Get the ball, Lil Dingdong
Come on
Shoot it
So close
What are you doing, No- 17?
What are you doing?
In a bad mood?
C'est la vie
Alright
Let's regroup
Ok---
I'll team up with Lil Dingdong
It's ok
Hey, you're an adult
It's fine
Yes
It's fine- I'll ask---
my brother- Come and join me
Come---
I don't play against girls
She's not a girl, she's a tomboy
Come on
Watan
What are you talking about? Nonsense
Come on- Let's play together
Battle 3 on 3
Don't get so close to me
I'm defending- What?
Get back
Ok
Come on, Lil Dingdong
Shoot it, Lil Dingdong
So close
Again---
Come on, Lil Dingdong
Come on---
Come on
Come on, Lil Dingdong
- Why did you pass the ball to him?
- Give me 5! Yay!
Come on, En Ya
Be serious about it
Come on, En Ya
Trying to steal my ball?
Come on, En Ya
Tap him---
You can't tickle me
Why can't I?
Well done, En Ya
Lin En Ya
Lin En Ya
What?
Where are you going?
It's not your business
What?
I'm protecting you
You won't have this luxury in Taipei
Protecting me? You idiot
What idiot?
Can you ride at all?
You're the one who can't
Why did you tickle me today?
I tickled you
because you wouldn't have let me win
Nonsense, I did
You didn't
I did, big time
Yeah, right, you did
I did
Hey, Lin En Ya
Hey
Dad
We've finished picking
We're done
Wow
Impressive
Thank you, Yulaw
Ok, bye
You can go back now
Ok, bye
You two are really something now
Like a roller coaster
Look- They are big and beautiful
Finished picking?
Finished
Any left?
No more
We picked a lot
Watan
Bring these back to granny and your brother
That's a lot
- It's fine as long as it pleases them
- Thanks, gramps
No, thank you, big handsome guy
That's more like it
Don't get any ideas with all these fruits
I won't- I'll definitely finish them
Give them to granny and your brother
Sure
Your dad was super nice today
We got a lot of fruits
Of course
Let's go to see Chubby
We'll make some money on the side and have fun-
Ok?
Sure
How come we haven't seen your dad recently?
He has gigs in Taipei
That's good
The longer he's gone, the better
Then I don't have to listen to them fight
Yes
Why got married if they fight a lot?
Who knows?
But my dad said it's tough love
Damn
That feels like they're very much in love
That's why your mom has 4 kids
Watch your mouth
Customers
You'll be the same when you grow up
Customers
Help out aboriginal kids
You're a knockout, lady
- Beautiful lady - Are you calling me?
Yes, I'm calling you, the most beautiful one
What are you selling?
Peaches
Look at these
Organic peaches
When did you pick them?
Only a moment ago
A moment ago
Take one and check
It's freshly picked
Not bad
It's delicious
Beautiful
How much do you want for one?
00:50:38,135 --> 00:50:39,136
150?
Are you sure?
They're 3 for 100 in Taipei
We're dark skinned aboriginal kids
Sister, beautiful sister
They're pesticide free
Totally pesticide free
Ok, buy them from him
Aborigines' lives are hard- He works hard
Ok, you're cute and you work hard
I'll get 5
Ok
How much is it for 5?
00:51:01,258 --> 00:51:03,394
Ok, wait a sec- I'll give you money
No need- We'll throw in 2 for free
We'll throw in 2 for free
00:51:07,398 --> 00:51:08,465
Give me 250 back
2 are free
I see
Ok, keep the change
Thank you
Thank you, beautiful sister
Bye
Why did you give her for free, idiot?
They're my peaches
Your dad already gave them to me
Stupid
Hey, who said that you could sell stuff here
Come over, you guys
We're only---
- Get over here - We want to make some allowance
Make some allowance
- Did you have a license? - Let's go
Get over here
Don't run
You fat jerk
Watch out for your feet
No worries- I won't fall
If you fall, I can't help you up
I can only watch
You just sit there and watch
You're still as naughty
Done
I'm glad to have En Ya and you back
Where's En Ya?
You're looking for her?
Yes, I don't see her anywhere- Flakey
No
She doesn't need to come in the morning-
Only afternoons
You're free this morning?
I'm free
Let's go
Go where?
Joyride
Joyride what?
Let's go
Where are we going?
Let's go
Be careful
- Let's go - What're you doing?
Can you manage?
Sure- I even carried a wild boar
Comparing your teacher with a wild boar!
You are light
But the strong wind makes the bridge shaky
It's more fun with strong wind
Otherwise, all you got is after-school class
If I don't stay there, what will you do?
Just leave it to us young people
Leave it to you?
Yes
Why don't you find a guy to be your legs?
To be my legs?
Strong men from the mountain
Like Wei, Guang
Who? No
It's you who should find a girl soon
Who shall I find?
En Ya- She's a nice girl
She's a college student
I'm a high school dropout
Would she consider about me?
So you do like her
I am right
No, stop this nonsense
I'll put you down
I'll run
I'll rampage!
You can't!
Naughty kid
Then stop this nonsense
Do you see it?
Elementary school and after-school class
You encouraged me to study off the mountain
I still think the mountain is better for me
Our tribe's better
You can't lie about missing someone
Love doesn't have a way
Close my eyes, and I see you,
smiling in silence
How are you, the one from far away?
When you sent me home that day,
you tried to be funny
Teacher
Teacher
Why are you here?
Where did you go with brother?
I didn't see you
I was worried about you
Don't worry
I went fishing with him
You can't walk, but you can catch fish?
Of course- I can swim, too
Take me to hunt with you next time, ok?
Ok
Ok
Is this you?
Yes
Is this your bf?
Yes
You were fat
I wasn't- Nonsense
This guy was your bf before you were crippled?
Yes- Don't we look cute together?
It's alright
But he's not as handsome as I am
Ok, you're the most handsome one
Can I listen to this?
Sure- Come over
Put them on
Is it working?
Meeting you is the most beautiful myth
I've ever had
You're the singer?
Yes
You're good
You can release an album
Now you know
So great
Chen Hao
You're going off the mountain tomorrow
Don't' forget to bring---
the ointment for your burn
I won't
Get ready
Ok
Apply the ointment for me, dad
Who do you ask me to apply it for you?
Please
Ok- Sit down---
It tickles
Where? Does it tickle like this?
It tickles
Here
Apply some more
I want to tell you something, dad
Teacher Lawa was gone today
She's crippled- How could she be gone?
Because Watan's brother gave her a ride today
And Watan---
He almost cried in the after-school class
That naughty Watan was in tears?
Yes
Hmm
I want to ask you a question
What is it?
If you don't see me when you come back,
will you cry?
Of course
Really?
Really
Don't be lying
I'm not lying
Then I have a question for you, too
Sure, go ahead
Promise me you won't get mad
I won't
Do you still get in touch with mom?
What are you talking about?
Do you know when you were little,
you stayed in the hospital for 3 months
because of the burn,
but she didn't even bother to visit you?
Why are you still talking about her?
I am just saying
You're going to Taipei tomorrow
Stay with the teacher and be good
Ok?
Be safe
Teacher
Teacher
Watan
Why are you here at this early hour?
I miss you
Seriously?
I'm leaving for 3 days
I'm afraid I'll miss you
What do you really want?
Close your eyes
Why?
Close your eyes
Pray for me
Wish us a safe journey
Come on, please
Ok
You'll feel better afterward
Throw up now
You guys are strange
Running around on the mountain
is nothing to you
But taking a bus just makes you sick
Throw up now
After zebra,
we'll see an animal with a longer neck
What is it?
Giraffe
You are full of lives
Let's go
Keep up
You should be familiar with this animal
"para"
Ok
Let's listen to the guide first
Be quiet
Can you all see?
Can all of you guys see?
What was para that you were just saying?
Formosan muntjac
It's Formosan muntjac
- Formosan muntjac is Taiwan's native---
- It doesn't mean guava
- Not the fruit guava
- They weren't talking about guava
Ok, Formosan muntjac- Let me explain
Formosan muntjac is a conserved native animal
from Taiwan---
I want to say that
our Formosan muntjcs are this big
And their skin is tough
You can't---
roast it
You have to simmer it or cook it, and---
Watan, stop
Sorry
Let me explain
Taiwan has 3 animals in Cervidae Family
They are Formosan sambar deer
Formosan sika deer, and Formosan muntjac
Formosan muntjac is the smallest in size
They are also rare and cute
Please tell hunters to stop hunting them
This is the aborigines' way
Why can't we hunt them?
- We--- - Stop, Watan
The animals here are for us to admire
It's different from the mountain, you know?
Teacher
That's silly
My dad also said that---
we can't catch the females and young ones
Why not?
So it'll be balanced
Ok---
Welcome back to the 2nd hour of the show
This is A-vai
Today, our studio is full of guests
They are kids from Tayal's Sqoyaw Tribe
We chose one student
to do the live interview
Say hi to everyone
Please tell us your name
Hi, my name is Lin Chen Hao
Lin Chen Hao, is it?
Wow, you have a beautiful name
What grade are you in now, Chen Hao?
6th grade
6th grade already?
It means you're going to graduate this year,
right?
It's fine- Don't be nervous
Can you tell us more about yourself?
And tell the audience out there
your purpose of this trip to Taipei
What have you guys done?
Because this is my last field trip,
our teacher brought us to visit Taipei
We went to the zoo
The zoo
And an American restaurant
Yes
I forgot the third place
Oh, you forgot?
So out of those places,
which one is your favorite?
Here
Here- Why?
Because you have A/C here
Oh?
And it feels like I'm recording an album
I see
Hope you like it here
So other than the zoo,
the American restaurant and the studio,
where'd you like to go the most?
My mom's home in Taipei
Your mom's home in Taipei
Why is that?
Because---
My mom left me when I was little
But she sends me clothes
There's an address on the box
So I know where my mom lives
She lives in Neihu---
It's alright
You don't have to say the address, Chen Hao
Because if you do,
the whole nation will hear it
Oh
Chen Hao
Do you have something to say to your mom then?
Because she might be listening to our show
I do- I'd like to tell my mom
I love the clothes she sends me
No matter big or small, I love them all
And I send her my paintings
I don't know if she gets them
I hope she can come to my graduation ceremony
Because I want to vie for Mayor's Honor
But my dad won't be pleased
Because he loves me very much
Maybe my mom can visit me in secret
Eh?
Why are you back, Chen Hao?
Give it to her
This---
Can you do me a favor?
Do me a favor and play this
Thank you
We'll start
Please open your mouth
Ok, bite it hard
Your teeth are all rotten
Granny has gum inflammation and atrophy
Atrophy?
Yes, tooth implants are recommended
Tooth implant
How much is it for one?
One is more than 100 thousands
More than 100 thousands
Yes
Maybe you can sell some land?
Don't eat chewy stuff after you go back
Don't eat chewy stuff
Do not eat chewy stuff
Thank you, doctor
Ok
Let's go
What do you think about---
my suggestion?
Thank you
Find some lands for me fast
I'll take care of the rest of it
Do you need money?
Chuan Tsung
Take this first
Let me know if it's not enough
Thank you, Mr- Wu
The food is served
Yay!
Come---
I want the biggest one
I want this and that
This is salad, very nutritious
Teacher
I don't like raw veggie or tomato
Please take this away
Aren't you American, Li De Tai?
Americans are tall because of this
Yes
I'm not American- I'm Canadian
It's all the same
Ok, kids
Thanks to some nice people's donations,
we have a meal in this restaurant
Otherwise, the food
will cost me half month's salary
Don't be choosy and eat more, ok?
But I want to have nuggets and fries, teacher
They'll come later
Teacher
Promise?
Why can't we have McDonald's?
Lin Shan
I thought you are going to play in NBA?
I am
NBA players ate these
when they were growing up
Oh
You get used to it first, ok?
Let's sneak out at night
Sure
Let's go
Where?
Don't you come here a lot?
You should know
Where do you want to go?
Take us with you
Yes, take us with you
You know the directions
I only went to the concert venue with my dad
And it's very loud there
Yeah, bring us there
Let's go
I'd like to watch your dad's show
- I'm still not talking to my dad
- He's a cool drummer
Let's go
We are seldom in Taipei
And we've never been to any night clubs
The harvest festival is here again
Wen-Le tribe's harvest festival is here again
The harvest festival is here again
Calm down
We've never been to any night clubs
It's not like you've never listened
to my dad sing
Super band
Yes
Your dad looks so cool
Wow
This is serious
They really have a poster
He had it long time ago
Don't be too proud
No
Our tribe's Mayday is really famous now
They are in red, too
What are you doing?
- What are you doing? - Watch the show
- Watch the show - That's right
Don't you know you can't go in under 18?
- Nope - But his dad's inside
His dad
His dad my ass
My great gramps is more like it
Sod off
Your great gramps is something?
Thank you
Thank you all
Up next
is a song titled "Daddy",
It's written by our drummer Hsiao Long
This song is dedicated to his son
Ok
My son is about this big
He reminds me of when I was young
I was very passionate about music
I enjoyed the feeling of being on stage
I only have a request from you
Please don't drink every day anymore
You think I cross the line
But who would want a cruel end
Make every day count
Listen to your kids' wishes
Stop drowning your sorrows
Don't tell me life is too fragile
Daddy, look on the bright side
Daddy, the kids are all with you
Daddy is our love
Daddy
After I grew up, I found out
there's a difference between dreams and reality
You can't have both
So, every day,
I drown my sorrows to avoid it
I felt remorse when I woke up
My son would look at me and say
Dad, you are totally uncool when you drink
That actually made me very sad
Make every day count
Listen to your kids' wishes
Stop drowning your sorrows
My third wish is---
let dad's band
play his songs
Daddy, kids are all with you
Daddy is our love
Daddy, kids are all with you
Are you really sure that your mom lives here?
Shut up- I'm trying to find it
Is it here?
We've searching all night long
- Is this your mom? - What? Yeah, right
Why is she singing karaoke?
Karaoke my ass
Then who is this?
This must be your wife
My wife? You idiot
This is the lady from the radio show
She asked me to send her a painting
What, are you done?
Yes
Done?
What's this?
Formosan muntjac
This is Formosan muntjac?
It looks like a little rabbit
Rabbits are smaller
You're old enough-
Why did you draw it like a rabbit?
Ok---
Try harder
You're going to graduate soon
But you draw like a 1st or 2nd grader
Fill out this empty space
Ok
You can exercise after you're done
Ok
Do it
Lin Shan
Is this drummer your dad?
Yes
Teacher,
his dad is our tribe's Mayflower
Shut up
Draw your painting
It's Mayday
You can't finish your project
but you have time to criticize people
Ok---
You make him very cool this time
Yes
Hmm
My dad's album is coming out
Seriously?
Yes, in July
You said it 800 times- Nothing happens
Their poster is out
Don't you worry
Really?
Really
I'll give you one at the graduation ceremony
Sure
If your dad really got an album, I'll buy 10
That's not enough- Buy more
How many do you want then?
20, 30
Look at granny, Watan
Granny, your dress for the graduation ceremony
makes you look like a Japanese
I look like a ghost in this
Not at all, granny
You look nice
- Yes - You look sweet
Look, mine is like Beckham's clothes
Do you want a suit then?
Is this expensive?
Yes, it's over 2 grands
That's a waste of money
A little mark costs you more than 2 grands
Take it off then- Don't wear it
Ok
Do you like it, Watan?
Of course
I love you so much
You silly boy
This place is not bad at all
It's secretive, too
Hurry up
Come---
This is the spot
Please---
Don't forget, ok?
Ok
Ok?
I'll beat you up if you forget
Ok
brother
I'm going to play a special tape
It was given to me by the aboriginal kids
who came to the studio
They hope that through the radio,
we can enjoy this lovely voice
The singer is their after-school class teacher
from the Catholic Church,
Miss Chen Jing
Miss Chen Jing's aboriginal name is Lawa
I'd like to share her story with the audience
Actually, about 10 years ago
Miss Lawa was a big hit
from university's Singing Contest
She was a rising star for her record label
But an unexpected car accident
ruined Lawa's spine
So much so that it made her unable to walk
She has to rely on a wheelchair
for the rest of her life
So Lawa went back to the tribe
to restart her life
She used the space from the church
to create an after-school class
So the kids from the tribe
can have a cozy place after school
other than home
These kids hope
the whole world can hear
their teacher's song
So they asked me to play this song
I'm sure if the teacher
is listening to our show
She'll be very pleased
Now, let's listen to
Miss Lawa's beautiful guitar and voice
You can't lie about missing someone
Love doesn't have a way
Close my eyes, and I see you,
smiling in silence
How are you, the one from far away?
When you sent me home that day,
you were full of charms
Will you miss it?
Miss what?
You're leaving in September
It should be hard for you
Of course
But I have to study
There's nothing that I can do
Don't go then-
Stay
I can't
I wish I could stay, too
How about you?
What's your plan?
I have to take care of my family
I have to wait a year to go to the military
I have to make money, too
It's a struggle
Hope you make it
I hope you make it
You're leaving
Don't turn bad
I won't turn bad, ok?
Have you seen the fireworks from Taipei 101?
No
What about it?
I think fireworks from our tribe will be better
I've never seen fireworks from Taipei 101
How will I know?
Why are there fireworks?
It's so beautiful
Do you like it?
Romantic night
I love you
Yes, I do
Police!
Freeze!
Stop
Brother
Yes?
What are you doing?
I'm packing- I have to go to Taipei
Will it be long?
No, only a few days
Will you come back then?
I'll come back for your graduation ceremony
Promise?
Ciao
You stay home
Well---
Here
Take it
This is a lot
Don't you need it?
Shit
Stop
Freeze
Stop
Freeze
Don't struggle
Stand
Let me go!
Why do you arrest my grandson?
Sorry, granny
Don't obstruct our duty
What are you doing?
- What did he do wrong?
- Excuse us, but we're on police duty
Don't obstruct our duty
Please---
- My grandson is a good kid
- Don't obstruct our duty
Please---
- Please, don't arrest him
- Excuse us, but we're on police duty
Don't obstruct our duty
My grandson is a good kid
Please don't arrest him
He's involved in planting Cannabis
I know my brother probably won't be back
I think he's really dumb
If it were me,
I'd have run faster
I wouldn't have let the police catch me
Granny was quiet for a few days
Unlike her usual self, she didn't nag at me
If my family could be like Lil Dingdong's
They fight but stay together
I'd never run away from home
We had a very good harvest of peaches this year
Chen Hao's dad is particularly busy
Looks like he's really turning old
But being old is fine
It's better than nothing
Teacher Lawa was worried about me
She told me
I can cry if I want to
But I don't think crying would help
C'est la vie
What do you know? Maybe great things will come
Principal,
teachers,
honorable guests,
and fellow students,
how are you?
After 6 years' earnest study,
we 6th graders graduate today
under the care of the teachers
and the expectations from our parents
Today,
we embark on our separate journeys,
searching for our own goals in the future
6 long years
suddenly ends
Wish we could relive these wonderful times
Thank you, parents
Under your care,
I grew up safe and sound
Okay, kid and granny We're going to start shooting
Okay
Don't move. We are taking pics
Okay! Kid, stay still
Okay
Okay, don't smile
Okay, let's shoot one
00:00:56,990 --> 00:01:00,127
Watan, your smile is too big.
That's bad for selling the vegetables
Kid, I said not to smile
Okay!
Hold your smile first
One more
00:01:10,704 --> 00:01:13,807
That's right, sadder Uglier
Put on a sadder look
so people will buy from granny
when they see the newspapers
Kid, don't hold granny
We are very close
And I didn't smile
Got it---
Look, this is nice
Granny Granny, this is nice
Your veggies will all sell out
- This pic is really good
- Awesome
Wait---Aren't these my dad's peaches?
Aren't they for your grandma?
Your peaches are too sweet
My granny will get diabetes from that
If you try to sell them at the tourists spot,
won't police catch you?
We could just run
Yeah, we are kids The police won't go after us
- Watan
- What?
How much is a peach?
Around 50NT
When people see
that we're dark skinned aboriginal kids,
we can sell at 80NT
Do we get a cut?
Bro, of course
10NT out of one
Oh, no- Busted
So what? Your dad is very kind
Don't freak out
Hello, gramps
Don't call my dad gramps
What're you three doing here?
We're going to the tourists spot
to sell veggies from Watan's granny
Granny's cabbages?
Yup
I thought that reporter spread the news
in the paper
We sell them to have more allowance
Oh, no, my peaches!
Each costs more than 100NT Don't squash them like this
Seriously?
Of course My family produces high quality peaches
So they are expensive
Chen Hao, don't lie
You're going to junior high school soon-
You're taking it too easy
How can you compete
with students off the mountain?
They are good
How can you take care of your dad afterward?
He's very good, top three from our class
Our teacher said he's so good that he understands everything
he doesn't need to review nor write homework
Who doesn't know your class has only 6 students
Top one, two and three
You cover the top three, right?
Okay---stop talking
- Let me send you to teacher Lawa
- Oh, no
- Big bro!
- Come on, hop on---We walked for a long time
It's all your fault!
We Action Buddha needs some info and pics
There's only 1 pic on the table
Because we don't take pics
That's fine
We'll take his pics later
Granny, the file said
both your son and husband passed away
So you tend this big garden all by yourself?
Yes
You have to take care of everything alone
It's difficult It must tire you out
Do you have only one grandson?
I have an older grandson
studying off the mountain
- He's mischievous, too
- Mischievous?
This one looks naughty
He's cute
I'll serve you some soup
I ate already, granny
I'm sorry- It might not suit your taste
No---It' fine, only that I ate
Then I'll give you a glass of water
Thanks, granny
You are too kind, thank you
You're really too kind
- Drink some tea
- Thanks---
Watan
The social worker is here- Come here
No What do you want?
What is it?
We'll measure your height and weight
Give you some clothes
We have lots of clothes
I have plenty of clothes here, right, granny?
I don't want them
Watch your manners
It's fine- He's only a kid
Besides clothes,
Besides clothes, We also provide satchels and computers
They have computers
Really?
Computers? New ones?
It's good enough to have one
That's lousy
The screen is almost broken, and it runs slow
Is it really a new one?
As good as new
Are you really going to give me one?
Yes, I'll give you one
That's a promise
- I'll go out now, granny
- Eat your breakfast first
No, I want black tea and bread
I'll get them at the grocery store
I'm heading out
- He doesn't listen to me - He is cute
Wait, I forgot to measure your height and weight

We shower together all the time
New clothes? Sent from your mom?
Yes
What else?
Good stuff
You got a lot
Go to check the trap with me, Chen Hao
No, I have after-school class this afternoon
Why don't you ask Lil Dingdong
He's watching a NBA game at home
Short and chubby
Rolling around when he's hit
Does he think that he's Jeremy Lin?
This one is too small for you- Take it off
Put on something else- Go hunting with me
This one's nice- Put this on
- Ok, relax
- I think your dad knows you better- Hurry up
Let's go
Come on
Are we there yet, Watan?
- Shut up
- Had a dream about Formosan muntjac my ass
Chen Hao, Formosan muntjac!
No kidding Formosan muntjac- Let's go
muntjac---
That
Look, it's broken
It's so small
Hurry up, you are hard to please
You should be satisfied with what you have
And it stinks
This is the way it's supposed to be
My brother used to hunt
He told me that you should take what you have
That's stupid
Grab that rope
- Let's go
- It's so dirty
Good stuff is here, boss
You are here
This is delicacy
Good stuff is here
It's alive
It's alive, caught yesterday
Police officer---
Hello, officer
What brings you here?
I'm just here seeing how things are
Iced cold beer
No, I'm on duty- Maybe some iced water
- It's warm
- Ok---
Will we be caught by the police?
No, He's also a Tayal, right?
He eats Formosan muntjac, too
How much do you want for this?
- Maybe 1500NT
-1500NT?
My dad's worker asks for 2 grands
- Seriously?
- Yeah
Then I'll ask for more later
You guys know how to choose your timing
If I didn't see him right away,
you'd have been caught
- Come Let me see
- It's huge
How much is it?
- 2 grands
- 2 grands?
- 1 grand 1 grand for a small one
- Please
We went far to catch it, 2 grands
- It was jumping around.
- Yes.
1 grand for a small one
or you can sell it elsewhere
- 1 grand.
- 1500, please, 1500
We're kids.
Look how fresh the meat is
1 grand
- Look, it smells so good -It's hard to come by Try to find it yourself.
1 grand.
Ok, 1200
1200?
We're kids, boss.
- Yes.
Come on!
It's tasty- 1200, boss
- This is the last time.
- Okay.
- Let me grab the money.
- Okay.
Thank you, boss.
I told you to sell it for 2 grands
He set the price. Otherwise you can't sell anything
1200 is a good deal
Life as a hunter is difficult,
we should grow fruits instead
You do that, go
Sing your own future
Tell your own dreams
Sing it out loud all the same
Am I good?
Can I release an album?
Sure
Thank you.
Aren't you that guy?
My future isn't a dream
- Do you think he's Tom Chang? -No
Who is he? You're that---
"Oh yeah, oh yeah" guy
Why are you here?
Enough. He's a good friend I just met.
Impossible
Do you know him?
Yeah.
Isn't he the most famous singer from your tribe?
Liar!
My dad is, not him
Dad's like our tribe's Mayday
Mayflower
Do you know what's our song?
What's your song?
A beautiful and young aboriginal girl
lives on a high mountain
She grabs a big pole every day
doing the pole dance
Do you know this song?
This classical song is so lame.
You should be embarrassed.
Do you know who he is?
He's an alcoholic from our tribe.
- Really?
His liver is going to burst
Shut up
I'll punch you guys.
Come and hit me.
"Oh yeah, oh yeah" guy
I'll come to see you and teach me play guitar.
Where are you going?
Let's go while the teacher is not here
You three!
Hello, teacher.
Only show up at the snack time
Go to your classroom now
I told you to use the front door
Why did you take the back door-
The teacher yelled at us
I didn't force you- You can't be mad
- No, you can't -Forget it
Why are you mad?
Yes, the teacher is so nice to us
Where were you, Watan?
Fishing?
You never take me with you
Like I will-
Talking about fishing all the time
Beetle.
Wow
Let's scare them
Go---
You are annoying
I'm doing my homework
Be quiet, American!
I'm doing my homework
Look
Here come the snacks
Be quiet
Who is it?
It's him that's loud
Who is?
- Watan.
Watan
Who is "Finished"?
Teacher, blame it on Chuang and Watan
It's not me- It's Watan
They scare them with a beetle
It's your beetle, ok?
Yes, it's mine- But YOU used it to scare people
That's for them to admire
Both of you are the same
No one can bring insects here from now on-
Got it?
Ok
Si Yu and Ai Jia, help me with the nuggets?
Sure
Here, give it to me
Here---I have no money left
Not money, candies?
Hurry up
The beetle- Give it to her
I'll punch you- Beetle---
What then?
Communication Book
Give it to me
I haven't signed it for days
It's 28 days
Talked back to your teacher in class?
Where?
Where? Here!
I'm illiterate
It was the teacher who talked back.
And you raised your voices.
Nope, I was born loud.
When can you let the teacher praise you?
She did- Isn't this it?
Where were you?
We were going to the tourist spot
to sell veggies-
Selling veggies at the tourist spot?
Hey! The tourist spot?
Yes, at Lishan
When I grow up, I'll take you there
Sure
Thank you
Ok
You can hear different voices when you travel
This is a song that I heard
on the 3rd day of my South Pacific journey
In the northern tribe,
the aboriginal girls use their own language
to sing church songs
Granny
I know you're upset that I suspend the school
But you're alone with my brother without any help.
I can help...
Brother
Granny
Is brother coming back?
Are you coming back?
Granny, don't be angry.
I can help you with the garden
And I can take odd jobs
I can take care of our family
I'll let you be and do whatever you like.
Granny
Brother
Granny will be fine in a minute.
Really.
Shoes?
No, listen
Look
- And these...
- Why do you have so much money?
1200 from Formosan muntjac
You stole this, right?
No
And that...
- What?
The low income family savings from the teacher in my account.
I have almost 30 grands
Stop lying, 30 grands my ass
It's true.
30 grands
If granny get sick,
we can pay her bills
What did you just say?
- Granny get sick?
Nonsense
Granny, don't eavesdrop.
That's your specialty.
I also want to buy---
those shoes with the "check" logo
What shoes with the check logo?
The expensive ones
over 2 grands with the check logo.
Why do you want to buy those?
I-
What shoes?
- Didn't I just buy you a pair at Lishan last time?
- Granny
Get out- Don't---
Are they ruined?
Please
Granny, sit down
What? Are the shoes I bought ruined?
No---I don't want some knockoffs
I want the real deal
The real "check" shoes
Knockoffs
You are the same
What did I do?
Don't stay up too late
You got work to do tomorrow
I know, I'll get up
You got scolded
Ok, granny, go to bed now.
We have some men's talk
What men's talk?
Men's talk it is- Hurry up
- Ok, go to bed, granny -Go---
Bye, go to bed.
You kids never listen
Hey, Hu, get up.
Go to work.
Granny
Is that your grandson?
Yes
He's so cute
What's his name?
Jia Hu
How old is he?
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,500
Graduated yet?
Granny has a great life
He still has to go off the mountain,
looking for a job
You have so much land
And you still let him go off to work
Just ask him to help out here
Keep up with the good work.
Hu?
Wow
All grown up
Why did you want to come back to the mountain?
Teacher
Actually, I think of coming back all the time
It's ok
You are back
You can take care of granny and help Watan out
You silly
Don't think too much
Ok?
This is your home
My brother is awesome
As soon as he got back yesterday
All the old or broken stuff at home
were fixed by him
Besides
His arms are as strong as a bull
I think your brother is a farm hand
My father is the cool one
He's our tribe's Mayday
Mayflower is more like it
When my Bday comes on this Thursday
he'll get me a huge 28-inch cake
Do you think it's a TV screen?
I think your dad has to save
for two years to afford it
My dad is better than your dads
He buys me presents all the time
It doesn't need to be my Bday
Yes
You came to our place to have Kentucky's?
I asked my dad to do it.
- Yes.
You dad is so old, like a grandpa
Come, everyone, eat
Here, have some fruit, Chen Hao
You idiot, don't call my dad an old man
- Old man -Your dad is like a grandpa
My name is Lin Shan
My nickname is Lil Dingdong
I want to play in NBA
My idol is Jeremy Lin
It's Lin En Ya's turn
My name is En Ya
I come from Sqoyaw Tribe
You never met me
Because I left the tribe when I was little
I don't like naughty kids
So you have to behave
Whose turn is it?
Teacher Lawa
I don't want to do it
- Come on--- -Alright alright
Come on
I---ok, 1, 2, 3, 4
My name is Lawa
I love kids the most
Hope you all are happy
and behave every single day---
Walking tires me out
What the heck- Go home now.
- Lin Hsiao Long
- It's your dad, Lin Shan
- This is super annoying- Shut up
Go and sit down, Watan- Hurry up
Close the door, En Ya
Why are you closing the door?
You are drunk and messing around again
I'm not drunk, I only want to see Lin Shan
Go home.
- What are you doing?
He's wasted
What wasted? Shut up
What the heck?
Don't you see these kids are in class?
I want to see my kid-
Why are you closing the door?
- Enough! Lower your voice-
- Go back- We are in class
He'll go home
Look at him- Does he make any progress in school?
I don't think so
Does he, teacher? No.
They don't charge anything
to let your kid to study here
What are you still bitching about?
What classes?
What? Think you are really something?
Sitting in a wheelchair is something?
That's rude.
What are you talking about?
Lin Shan
Look at your great son
Go after him quick
Go home- Are you done?
What are you doing?
Do this farce at home
Watch out, you guys
Aren't you annoying enough?
Let's leave
Don't drag me
You are embarrassing
- Aren't you annoying enough?
- Can you not be so wasted every day?
So what?
- Shut up - Don't drag me
Not so loud
Don't push me
Let's talk at home
Talk about what?
Teacher
This farce today
reminds me of my dad's same behavior
when I was little
You're not scared?
Not really
Can you believe an alcoholic?
But they were so mean to you
If I were you, I'd have quit long time ago
What can I do?
Who'd take care of this place if I weren't here?
These damn kids are so naughty
Just let them be
This is nonsense
Don't touch it, it's expensive.
What's up? What are you doing?
Nothing
Is this expensive, dad?
You mean ukulele?
It's a bit cheaper than a guitar
Can you play it?
Me? Of course.
Otherwise, why would I buy it?
Then can you teach me tonight?
Sure, no problem
So will you sing your own song
when you are off the mountain?
But your mom nags at me every day
How can I ever possibly finish it?
She nags only because you drink
It's not true-
I'm always sober when I write songs
Right, girls?
No
Yes?
No
Then don't drink when you come back tonight
It's so warm.
Yeah.
Let's go swimming
Why are you running?
Watan
Lin Shan
Lin Shan
Big handsome boy.
- Watan
What are you sniffing at?
- You're sober now.
Why do you keep talking about drinking?
Because you were so mean yesterday
Your dad drank more than I do
He went to heaven already, right?
Don't be like him in the future, ok?
- No way, alcohol stinks -Ok?
Dingdong
Is this your ukulele?
- Yes.
Wow
Your dad is nice and handsome
Of course
Driving this car is cool,
unlike someone's transporter
Bullshit,
my dad's transporter is cooler than this
- Enough! Stop messing with my dad
- Ok---go to school now
Enough chatting
Bye
Bye
Your dad got you ukulele this time
You didn't even master flute last time
That's right.
- You lazy kid.
So your parents made up?
Who knows? They are like this all the time
Quarrel, made up, quarrel, made up
Hu, you are back
Yes, brother
How's it going out there?
It was alright
Yeah?
I have some works here- Help me out
Find me a land- We'll make a big profit
What do you think?
Granny
Hey
Is that grandpa's land?
Yes
How come you never use it?
Some people want to rent it but I said no.
They might make a mess
Let me use it
When you are back from the army then
I still have one year here
We'll see.
It's on me
Don't you lie
and make me pay later
Here's 1 grand
Don't talk nonsense- Hurry up
Can I take some more?
Your brother is very nice to you to give you 1 grand each time.
It's 3 grands
Then I'll take more?
Ok, hurry up and place them
How much is this?
Ok, wait a second
This one, plus this one.
- Okay.
Kids don't drink energy drinks
It's fine
It's 420
Do you need some more?
1 grand
This is 1 grand
I took the wrong stuff
This is for Watan
This... Here you go, Watan
This one, see if it fits.
Let's try it on at home
- I just bought it there - I don't want to
You three
It's late- Why are you still here?
Go to the after-school class now
Hold on, let me wrap first, please?
Look, teacher
Which underwear looks better,
my brother's or mine?
Which underwear looks better?
You are---?
En Ya, this is my grandson
You fought a lot when you were little
Chen Jia Hu?
You're back?
I remember you now- You bullied me all the time
YOU bullied me all the time
Well, you always won
You were too short
Don't pick on my brother
He's strong like a bull
Bull my ass
Ok, enough, go to class now
Ok---
Go to class
You guys go to the class right now
What are you doing?
Give us a ride, then- Give us a ride
You guys get off of my scooter
Don't touch it, Li De Tai- It's expensive
What?
I want to order "The Night That I Think Of You"
It's too difficult
Then I want to order "War Song"
- That's difficult, too
- Stop
Then I want "My Future Is Not A Dream"
That's so old
"The Busy Bee"
That's too childish
Lil Dingdong just bought this ukulele Do you think he knows every song?
Of course, he's our tribe's Mayday
- Ok, enough - Then "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"
It's even more childish than "The Busy Bee"
Then you should know your dad's "Urban Latino"
He's teaching me only tonight
Our tribe's Mayday my ass- You suck
Why are you talking?
- Finished your homework?
- I did
Everyone's finished but you
Finish your homework
or you don't get snacks, I'm telling you
En Ya
- Hurry up - Here comes the snacks
En Ya
Write your homework
Don't rush- Take your turn
What the heck?
- Teacher - I told you to behave
It's fine
It's all your fault, Chuang
- Ok, no worries - You messed up again
Watan Help me bring the wheelchair here
I'll beat you up
You idiot Told you
No snacks next time
Help me lock it
Don't make me kick you
Watan
Help me up
If you didn't rush this wouldn't have happened
You're out of your mind
The teacher got hurt cos you rushed
It wasn't me
- You're all the same
- Enough
I'm fine
I'm fine now
- Teacher
- What's up?
Do you need to treat your wound?
I'll treat it later
I fall off the wheelchair from time to time
My whole arm used to be covered in blood
Doesn't it hurt?
A little bit
Does it hurt like this?
No
Does it---
Ouch! You press too hard
I want to tell you something
My brother gave me 3 grands today
- Really?
- Yes
Actually I've saved almost 8 grands
in my little box
Wow, you are richer than I am
I'll get you a present when I'm off the mountain
Sure
What kind of present do you want?
Anything will do, but not too expensive
Ok
- I'll get you a tiara
- Why not?
Because you look nicer with your hair down
Really?
Don't tie it up all the time
- Sure, nothing expensive-
100 is enough - Ok
Don't I have a job?
Who pays for their tuition then?
I can just move to Taipei
with my band members
I'll just send the money back
I'm starving
Go away
You drink too much
What? You're loaded?
Lin Shan tells everyone
he's going to play in NBA
Are you daydreaming with your son?
Just give me my money fast Only your dream counts?
You tell everyone
that you're going to release an album
When will that day come?
What did you say?
Are you hurt? Let me see
It's ok---
What are you doing?
Enough of this farce!

I want to run away from home
- Then we'll go to the mountain tomorrow
to lead the way
- Lead what way?
What's up?
He said he wants to run away from home
We only have one bed at our home
Who wants to stay at your home?
You idiot
He'll go to the mountain with me
Want to tag along?
I can't

My dad can't live one day without me
He loves me very much
Hi
Don't scare me- I'll cry
My dad will be up in a minute

You idiot
Lower your voice
Why are you here?
- Nothing - I thought you're not going
We're friends- We stick together
Hurry up- Go---
Hey
Chubby Can you go, Chubby?
Yes
Can you?
He checked the trap with me last time
It's fine?
Yes
Don't cry for your mom then
I won't
Hello
He brought three kids
They are very young
How's it going?
Long wait?
No, not long
- Don't you have classes?
- No
- My brother - You're adorable
He brought us here
American
My name is James
My name is Chen Hao Lin
- My name is Watan
- OK.
Nice to meet you
What's your name?
I'm Damien Stone
- He speaks mandarin
- Of course
Why did we speak English then?
No need- Just speak mandarin
Are you American?
No---
I'm French
Bonjour
Bonjour- He can speak
Ok, it's time
Ok
Watan You'll scare Formosan muntjacs away
Ok
Watan Don't walk so fast
What if you trip?
Be careful
Do you want me to carry you, Lil Dingdong?
Are we there yet?
Almost there
You said so one hour ago
Lil Dingdong, you're no better
You're lazier than a sloth
You said you'd carry it yourself
You are so lucky
You refused to eat in the day
Because it was hot
I had no appetite
Everything tastes yummy up here
Look, I had two bowls, too
It's fine- Kids should eat more
- Uncle
- Yes
Do you eat a lot of pasta in France?
Yes, a lot- I'm a great cook
I'll cook you some next time
Can I visit you in France?
Ok, I'll bring you with me
Because when I grow up,
I want to travel the world
Oh, really? How brave
You're not afraid?
Have you ever gone abroad?
Yes
Really? Where was it?
Hsiao Liouciou
You idiot
That's not abroad
It's in Taiwan, you silly
How would I know?
Besides, I don't want to go abroad
No travel around the world
I only want to stay with my brother
Mountains are good enough
Thank you- Ok, bye
What's up? Still nothing?
- Have you looked elsewhere?
- Any word?
I assumed he'd be here
- I didn't know there's no after-school class today
- I went off the mountain
to get him a cake already
- Yes, it's his Bday
- How could this happen?
Ok, don't you worry
- I'll call everyone
- Ok
Actually, it's my Bday
Really?
Oh, yeah
Your dad promised to get you
a 28-inch cake
You're lying again
Even if I got lost on the mountain
I don't think my parents
would be worried about me
How can your parents not be worried about you?
Besides, you look so cute
If you were missing,
your parents would be so sad
Yeah, you're not cute when you frown
let me give you a present
Happy birthday!
And---wait---
Make wishes
Now you can make wishes
Your wishes will be granted here
I made a wish last time when I was here
That is to marry my wife
It came true
- Really?
- Really.
Then I want to make my wishes
My first wish is
that mom and dad stop fighting
and can be as in love as you do
My second wish is
that dad's album can be a big hit
My third wish is---
Can we eat the cake now, mom?
- Wait for your brother first, ok?
- You brother is missing- Can we wait?
Wow- Seriously?
Look how she wears her dress
Won't it get dirty?
No way
Come closer, ok?
Yes---
My mom said she doesn't have any wedding photos
Why not?
Cos she was pregnant with me
before she got married
Don't you laugh
That's probably the reason why
Then I'd like my parents
to have a wedding photo shoot on the mountain
Ready---1, 2, 3
Sister
Very nice
Come down
Wait a minute
Come- Together
Ready? Ok
Ok, ready---1, 2, 3
Wow
Ok?
Professional
Great- Next set
Ok, smile, Tayal people
Be happy- Smile
Ok- Ready---1, 2, 3
Is the watermelon sweet?
Very sweet
Thanks
Thank you, Ah Wei
Let's go again next time
Your Formosan muntjac is huge
We hunt again next time?
There are plenty on the mountain
But don't we have classes?
Only a few periods left
Lin Shan
Don't hit the kid
Where did you go? Say something
Where did you go?
You have no right to hit me
How dare you to talk to me like that?
Enough- Don't hit the kid
He's already back!
You have no right to hit me
You have no right to hit me
So where did you go?
Don't you know we were so worried about you?
We'd been looking for you all night
If you were gone, what should we do?
Do you know that we bought you a cake yesterday?
I don't care
I could care less!
What did you just say?
I don't care about your ukulele
Don't care about the cake
If you didn't drink, didn't fight,
none of this would've happened
Lil Dingdong
Reason with him- Why did you hit the kid?
So the ambulance doesn't answer my need?
Yelling outside like this wouldn't work
I've been calling 911
If you don't feel well, talk to the doc
Don't yell like this
Go there and sit down- Sit---
Be careful
Watch where you walk
Is this your uncle?
Of course not
He's so wasted
What the heck?
What are you doing?
Sit tight
Damn
Oh, please
What's wrong, granny?
- She got a toothache - Granny can't talk?
Then you can't sing karaoke at night
You can't sing now- Serve you right
What are you doing here?
Me?
I'm here to get Teacher Lawa's medicine
I saw you everywhere every day
I'm not everywhere
I passed the recommendation
Impressive
How about you?
I suspended school-
Now waiting to go to the military
Suspended school?
What are you doing this afternoon?
Help out at the after-school class
How about you?
I'm not busy
Come and help out then
Help you out with what?
I can't teach ABCD
What ABCD
Be straightforward with love- Just take her home
What?
You drink too much, alcoholic
Come on
Get the ball, Lil Dingdong
Come on
Shoot it
So close
What are you doing, No- 17?
What are you doing?
In a bad mood?
C'est la vie
Alright
Let's regroup
Ok---
I'll team up with Lil Dingdong
It's ok
Hey, you're an adult
It's fine
Yes
It's fine- I'll ask---
my brother- Come and join me
Come---
I don't play against girls
She's not a girl, she's a tomboy
Come on
Watan
What are you talking about? Nonsense
Come on- Let's play together
Battle 3 on 3
Don't get so close to me
I'm defending- What?
Get back
Ok
Come on, Lil Dingdong
Shoot it, Lil Dingdong
So close
Again---
Come on, Lil Dingdong
Come on---
Come on
Come on, Lil Dingdong
- Why did you pass the ball to him?
- Give me 5! Yay!
Come on, En Ya
Be serious about it
Come on, En Ya
Trying to steal my ball?
Come on, En Ya
Tap him---
You can't tickle me
Why can't I?
Well done, En Ya
Lin En Ya
Lin En Ya
What?
Where are you going?
It's not your business
What?
I'm protecting you
You won't have this luxury in Taipei
Protecting me? You idiot
What idiot?
Can you ride at all?
You're the one who can't
Why did you tickle me today?
I tickled you
because you wouldn't have let me win
Nonsense, I did
You didn't
I did, big time
Yeah, right, you did
I did
Hey, Lin En Ya
Hey
Dad
We've finished picking
We're done
Wow
Impressive
Thank you, Yulaw
Ok, bye
You can go back now
Ok, bye
You two are really something now
Like a roller coaster
Look- They are big and beautiful
Finished picking?
Finished
Any left?
No more
We picked a lot
Watan
Bring these back to granny and your brother
That's a lot
- It's fine as long as it pleases them
- Thanks, gramps
No, thank you, big handsome guy
That's more like it
Don't get any ideas with all these fruits
I won't- I'll definitely finish them
Give them to granny and your brother
Sure
Your dad was super nice today
We got a lot of fruits
Of course
Let's go to see Chubby
We'll make some money on the side and have fun-
Ok?
Sure
How come we haven't seen your dad recently?
He has gigs in Taipei
That's good
The longer he's gone, the better
Then I don't have to listen to them fight
Yes
Why got married if they fight a lot?
Who knows?
But my dad said it's tough love
Damn
That feels like they're very much in love
That's why your mom has 4 kids
Watch your mouth
Customers
You'll be the same when you grow up
Customers
Help out aboriginal kids
You're a knockout, lady
- Beautiful lady - Are you calling me?
Yes, I'm calling you, the most beautiful one
What are you selling?
Peaches
Look at these
Organic peaches
When did you pick them?
Only a moment ago
A moment ago
Take one and check
It's freshly picked
Not bad
It's delicious
Beautiful
How much do you want for one?
00:50:38,135 --> 00:50:39,136
150?
Are you sure?
They're 3 for 100 in Taipei
We're dark skinned aboriginal kids
Sister, beautiful sister
They're pesticide free
Totally pesticide free
Ok, buy them from him
Aborigines' lives are hard- He works hard
Ok, you're cute and you work hard
I'll get 5
Ok
How much is it for 5?
00:51:01,258 --> 00:51:03,394
Ok, wait a sec- I'll give you money
No need- We'll throw in 2 for free
We'll throw in 2 for free
00:51:07,398 --> 00:51:08,465
Give me 250 back
2 are free
I see
Ok, keep the change
Thank you
Thank you, beautiful sister
Bye
Why did you give her for free, idiot?
They're my peaches
Your dad already gave them to me
Stupid
Hey, who said that you could sell stuff here
Come over, you guys
We're only---
- Get over here - We want to make some allowance
Make some allowance
- Did you have a license? - Let's go
Get over here
Don't run
You fat jerk
Watch out for your feet
No worries- I won't fall
If you fall, I can't help you up
I can only watch
You just sit there and watch
You're still as naughty
Done
I'm glad to have En Ya and you back
Where's En Ya?
You're looking for her?
Yes, I don't see her anywhere- Flakey
No
She doesn't need to come in the morning-
Only afternoons
You're free this morning?
I'm free
Let's go
Go where?
Joyride
Joyride what?
Let's go
Where are we going?
Let's go
Be careful
- Let's go - What're you doing?
Can you manage?
Sure- I even carried a wild boar
Comparing your teacher with a wild boar!
You are light
But the strong wind makes the bridge shaky
It's more fun with strong wind
Otherwise, all you got is after-school class
If I don't stay there, what will you do?
Just leave it to us young people
Leave it to you?
Yes
Why don't you find a guy to be your legs?
To be my legs?
Strong men from the mountain
Like Wei, Guang
Who? No
It's you who should find a girl soon
Who shall I find?
En Ya- She's a nice girl
She's a college student
I'm a high school dropout
Would she consider about me?
So you do like her
I am right
No, stop this nonsense
I'll put you down
I'll run
I'll rampage!
You can't!
Naughty kid
Then stop this nonsense
Do you see it?
Elementary school and after-school class
You encouraged me to study off the mountain
I still think the mountain is better for me
Our tribe's better
You can't lie about missing someone
Love doesn't have a way
Close my eyes, and I see you,
smiling in silence
How are you, the one from far away?
When you sent me home that day,
you tried to be funny
Teacher
Teacher
Why are you here?
Where did you go with brother?
I didn't see you
I was worried about you
Don't worry
I went fishing with him
You can't walk, but you can catch fish?
Of course- I can swim, too
Take me to hunt with you next time, ok?
Ok
Ok
Is this you?
Yes
Is this your bf?
Yes
You were fat
I wasn't- Nonsense
This guy was your bf before you were crippled?
Yes- Don't we look cute together?
It's alright
But he's not as handsome as I am
Ok, you're the most handsome one
Can I listen to this?
Sure- Come over
Put them on
Is it working?
Meeting you is the most beautiful myth
I've ever had
You're the singer?
Yes
You're good
You can release an album
Now you know
So great
Chen Hao
You're going off the mountain tomorrow
Don't' forget to bring---
the ointment for your burn
I won't
Get ready
Ok
Apply the ointment for me, dad
Who do you ask me to apply it for you?
Please
Ok- Sit down---
It tickles
Where? Does it tickle like this?
It tickles
Here
Apply some more
I want to tell you something, dad
Teacher Lawa was gone today
She's crippled- How could she be gone?
Because Watan's brother gave her a ride today
And Watan---
He almost cried in the after-school class
That naughty Watan was in tears?
Yes
Hmm
I want to ask you a question
What is it?
If you don't see me when you come back,
will you cry?
Of course
Really?
Really
Don't be lying
I'm not lying
Then I have a question for you, too
Sure, go ahead
Promise me you won't get mad
I won't
Do you still get in touch with mom?
What are you talking about?
Do you know when you were little,
you stayed in the hospital for 3 months
because of the burn,
but she didn't even bother to visit you?
Why are you still talking about her?
I am just saying
You're going to Taipei tomorrow
Stay with the teacher and be good
Ok?
Be safe
Teacher
Teacher
Watan
Why are you here at this early hour?
I miss you
Seriously?
I'm leaving for 3 days
I'm afraid I'll miss you
What do you really want?
Close your eyes
Why?
Close your eyes
Pray for me
Wish us a safe journey
Come on, please
Ok
You'll feel better afterward
Throw up now
You guys are strange
Running around on the mountain
is nothing to you
But taking a bus just makes you sick
Throw up now
After zebra,
we'll see an animal with a longer neck
What is it?
Giraffe
You are full of lives
Let's go
Keep up
You should be familiar with this animal
"para"
Ok
Let's listen to the guide first
Be quiet
Can you all see?
Can all of you guys see?
What was para that you were just saying?
Formosan muntjac
It's Formosan muntjac
- Formosan muntjac is Taiwan's native---
- It doesn't mean guava
- Not the fruit guava
- They weren't talking about guava
Ok, Formosan muntjac- Let me explain
Formosan muntjac is a conserved native animal
from Taiwan---
I want to say that
our Formosan muntjcs are this big
And their skin is tough
You can't---
roast it
You have to simmer it or cook it, and---
Watan, stop
Sorry
Let me explain
Taiwan has 3 animals in Cervidae Family
They are Formosan sambar deer
Formosan sika deer, and Formosan muntjac
Formosan muntjac is the smallest in size
They are also rare and cute
Please tell hunters to stop hunting them
This is the aborigines' way
Why can't we hunt them?
- We--- - Stop, Watan
The animals here are for us to admire
It's different from the mountain, you know?
Teacher
That's silly
My dad also said that---
we can't catch the females and young ones
Why not?
So it'll be balanced
Ok---
Welcome back to the 2nd hour of the show
This is A-vai
Today, our studio is full of guests
They are kids from Tayal's Sqoyaw Tribe
We chose one student
to do the live interview
Say hi to everyone
Please tell us your name
Hi, my name is Lin Chen Hao
Lin Chen Hao, is it?
Wow, you have a beautiful name
What grade are you in now, Chen Hao?
6th grade
6th grade already?
It means you're going to graduate this year,
right?
It's fine- Don't be nervous
Can you tell us more about yourself?
And tell the audience out there
your purpose of this trip to Taipei
What have you guys done?
Because this is my last field trip,
our teacher brought us to visit Taipei
We went to the zoo
The zoo
And an American restaurant
Yes
I forgot the third place
Oh, you forgot?
So out of those places,
which one is your favorite?
Here
Here- Why?
Because you have A/C here
Oh?
And it feels like I'm recording an album
I see
Hope you like it here
So other than the zoo,
the American restaurant and the studio,
where'd you like to go the most?
My mom's home in Taipei
Your mom's home in Taipei
Why is that?
Because---
My mom left me when I was little
But she sends me clothes
There's an address on the box
So I know where my mom lives
She lives in Neihu---
It's alright
You don't have to say the address, Chen Hao
Because if you do,
the whole nation will hear it
Oh
Chen Hao
Do you have something to say to your mom then?
Because she might be listening to our show
I do- I'd like to tell my mom
I love the clothes she sends me
No matter big or small, I love them all
And I send her my paintings
I don't know if she gets them
I hope she can come to my graduation ceremony
Because I want to vie for Mayor's Honor
But my dad won't be pleased
Because he loves me very much
Maybe my mom can visit me in secret
Eh?
Why are you back, Chen Hao?
Give it to her
This---
Can you do me a favor?
Do me a favor and play this
Thank you
We'll start
Please open your mouth
Ok, bite it hard
Your teeth are all rotten
Granny has gum inflammation and atrophy
Atrophy?
Yes, tooth implants are recommended
Tooth implant
How much is it for one?
One is more than 100 thousands
More than 100 thousands
Yes
Maybe you can sell some land?
Don't eat chewy stuff after you go back
Don't eat chewy stuff
Do not eat chewy stuff
Thank you, doctor
Ok
Let's go
What do you think about---
my suggestion?
Thank you
Find some lands for me fast
I'll take care of the rest of it
Do you need money?
Chuan Tsung
Take this first
Let me know if it's not enough
Thank you, Mr- Wu
The food is served
Yay!
Come---
I want the biggest one
I want this and that
This is salad, very nutritious
Teacher
I don't like raw veggie or tomato
Please take this away
Aren't you American, Li De Tai?
Americans are tall because of this
Yes
I'm not American- I'm Canadian
It's all the same
Ok, kids
Thanks to some nice people's donations,
we have a meal in this restaurant
Otherwise, the food
will cost me half month's salary
Don't be choosy and eat more, ok?
But I want to have nuggets and fries, teacher
They'll come later
Teacher
Promise?
Why can't we have McDonald's?
Lin Shan
I thought you are going to play in NBA?
I am
NBA players ate these
when they were growing up
Oh
You get used to it first, ok?
Let's sneak out at night
Sure
Let's go
Where?
Don't you come here a lot?
You should know
Where do you want to go?
Take us with you
Yes, take us with you
You know the directions
I only went to the concert venue with my dad
And it's very loud there
Yeah, bring us there
Let's go
I'd like to watch your dad's show
- I'm still not talking to my dad
- He's a cool drummer
Let's go
We are seldom in Taipei
And we've never been to any night clubs
The harvest festival is here again
Wen-Le tribe's harvest festival is here again
The harvest festival is here again
Calm down
We've never been to any night clubs
It's not like you've never listened
to my dad sing
Super band
Yes
Your dad looks so cool
Wow
This is serious
They really have a poster
He had it long time ago
Don't be too proud
No
Our tribe's Mayday is really famous now
They are in red, too
What are you doing?
- What are you doing? - Watch the show
- Watch the show - That's right
Don't you know you can't go in under 18?
- Nope - But his dad's inside
His dad
His dad my ass
My great gramps is more like it
Sod off
Your great gramps is something?
Thank you
Thank you all
Up next
is a song titled "Daddy",
It's written by our drummer Hsiao Long
This song is dedicated to his son
Ok
My son is about this big
He reminds me of when I was young
I was very passionate about music
I enjoyed the feeling of being on stage
I only have a request from you
Please don't drink every day anymore
You think I cross the line
But who would want a cruel end
Make every day count
Listen to your kids' wishes
Stop drowning your sorrows
Don't tell me life is too fragile
Daddy, look on the bright side
Daddy, the kids are all with you
Daddy is our love
Daddy
After I grew up, I found out
there's a difference between dreams and reality
You can't have both
So, every day,
I drown my sorrows to avoid it
I felt remorse when I woke up
My son would look at me and say
Dad, you are totally uncool when you drink
That actually made me very sad
Make every day count
Listen to your kids' wishes
Stop drowning your sorrows
My third wish is---
let dad's band
play his songs
Daddy, kids are all with you
Daddy is our love
Daddy, kids are all with you
Are you really sure that your mom lives here?
Shut up- I'm trying to find it
Is it here?
We've searching all night long
- Is this your mom? - What? Yeah, right
Why is she singing karaoke?
Karaoke my ass
Then who is this?
This must be your wife
My wife? You idiot
This is the lady from the radio show
She asked me to send her a painting
What, are you done?
Yes
Done?
What's this?
Formosan muntjac
This is Formosan muntjac?
It looks like a little rabbit
Rabbits are smaller
You're old enough-
Why did you draw it like a rabbit?
Ok---
Try harder
You're going to graduate soon
But you draw like a 1st or 2nd grader
Fill out this empty space
Ok
You can exercise after you're done
Ok
Do it
Lin Shan
Is this drummer your dad?
Yes
Teacher,
his dad is our tribe's Mayflower
Shut up
Draw your painting
It's Mayday
You can't finish your project
but you have time to criticize people
Ok---
You make him very cool this time
Yes
Hmm
My dad's album is coming out
Seriously?
Yes, in July
You said it 800 times- Nothing happens
Their poster is out
Don't you worry
Really?
Really
I'll give you one at the graduation ceremony
Sure
If your dad really got an album, I'll buy 10
That's not enough- Buy more
How many do you want then?
20, 30
Look at granny, Watan
Granny, your dress for the graduation ceremony
makes you look like a Japanese
I look like a ghost in this
Not at all, granny
You look nice
- Yes - You look sweet
Look, mine is like Beckham's clothes
Do you want a suit then?
Is this expensive?
Yes, it's over 2 grands
That's a waste of money
A little mark costs you more than 2 grands
Take it off then- Don't wear it
Ok
Do you like it, Watan?
Of course
I love you so much
You silly boy
This place is not bad at all
It's secretive, too
Hurry up
Come---
This is the spot
Please---
Don't forget, ok?
Ok
Ok?
I'll beat you up if you forget
Ok
brother
I'm going to play a special tape
It was given to me by the aboriginal kids
who came to the studio
They hope that through the radio,
we can enjoy this lovely voice
The singer is their after-school class teacher
from the Catholic Church,
Miss Chen Jing
Miss Chen Jing's aboriginal name is Lawa
I'd like to share her story with the audience
Actually, about 10 years ago
Miss Lawa was a big hit
from university's Singing Contest
She was a rising star for her record label
But an unexpected car accident
ruined Lawa's spine
So much so that it made her unable to walk
She has to rely on a wheelchair
for the rest of her life
So Lawa went back to the tribe
to restart her life
She used the space from the church
to create an after-school class
So the kids from the tribe
can have a cozy place after school
other than home
These kids hope
the whole world can hear
their teacher's song
So they asked me to play this song
I'm sure if the teacher
is listening to our show
She'll be very pleased
Now, let's listen to
Miss Lawa's beautiful guitar and voice
You can't lie about missing someone
Love doesn't have a way
Close my eyes, and I see you,
smiling in silence
How are you, the one from far away?
When you sent me home that day,
you were full of charms
Will you miss it?
Miss what?
You're leaving in September
It should be hard for you
Of course
But I have to study
There's nothing that I can do
Don't go then-
Stay
I can't
I wish I could stay, too
How about you?
What's your plan?
I have to take care of my family
I have to wait a year to go to the military
I have to make money, too
It's a struggle
Hope you make it
I hope you make it
You're leaving
Don't turn bad
I won't turn bad, ok?
Have you seen the fireworks from Taipei 101?
No
What about it?
I think fireworks from our tribe will be better
I've never seen fireworks from Taipei 101
How will I know?
Why are there fireworks?
It's so beautiful
Do you like it?
Romantic night
I love you
Yes, I do
Police!
Freeze!
Stop
Brother
Yes?
What are you doing?
I'm packing- I have to go to Taipei
Will it be long?
No, only a few days
Will you come back then?
I'll come back for your graduation ceremony
Promise?
Ciao
You stay home
Well---
Here
Take it
This is a lot
Don't you need it?
Shit
Stop
Freeze
Stop
Freeze
Don't struggle
Stand
Let me go!
Why do you arrest my grandson?
Sorry, granny
Don't obstruct our duty
What are you doing?
- What did he do wrong?
- Excuse us, but we're on police duty
Don't obstruct our duty
Please---
- My grandson is a good kid
- Don't obstruct our duty
Please---
- Please, don't arrest him
- Excuse us, but we're on police duty
Don't obstruct our duty
My grandson is a good kid
Please don't arrest him
He's involved in planting Cannabis
I know my brother probably won't be back
I think he's really dumb
If it were me,
I'd have run faster
I wouldn't have let the police catch me
Granny was quiet for a few days
Unlike her usual self, she didn't nag at me
If my family could be like Lil Dingdong's
They fight but stay together
I'd never run away from home
We had a very good harvest of peaches this year
Chen Hao's dad is particularly busy
Looks like he's really turning old
But being old is fine
It's better than nothing
Teacher Lawa was worried about me
She told me
I can cry if I want to
But I don't think crying would help
C'est la vie
What do you know? Maybe great things will come
Principal,
teachers,
honorable guests,
and fellow students,
how are you?
After 6 years' earnest study,
we 6th graders graduate today
under the care of the teachers
and the expectations from our parents
Today,
we embark on our separate journeys,
searching for our own goals in the future
6 long years
suddenly ends
Wish we could relive these wonderful times
Thank you, parents
Under your care,
I grew up safe and sound
