Island Etude (2006)

Travelling is always the best way to encounter true stories. Ming Hsang, a deaf, decided to cycle around Taiwan before graduating from college. This film, lasting for 100 minutes, documents his trip, which lasted 7 days and 6 nights. He camped at the beach of Tai-Ma-Li on the first evening, playing the guitar. Although he has hearing problems, he is still very much interested in sounds. The next morning, he followed the Tai-11 highway. He met a group of people filming an MV on the east coastline. They also film him. On the third day, he was on the Su-Hua highway, a highway notoriously difficult to conquer for cyclists. He met a Lithuanian girl at the Han-Ben railway station. She missed the train to Hua-Lien. He helped her to get on her train by communicating with her with pens and paper. (Source: IMDb) Edit Translation
