Among the latest explorers in therealm is Riverbed Theatre, a “total theater” company that was formed in Taipei in 1998 and combines visual and performing arts. “All That Remains” is directed by the company’s artistic director Craig Quintero. The film challenges audiences’ perceptions of truth by questioning the possibilities beyond the everyday patterns that are constructed from known facts and familiarity. The idea is to nudge viewers out of their comfort zone.
The White Terror period was conducted by the Kuomintang , which fled mainland China after losing the civil war to the Communist Party in 1949. It lasted until 1987 when martial law was lifted. With Taiwan now free and democratically-ruled, the days of repression are in the island’s past, but to Chen and her crew, history and certain stories should not be forgotten.
