This film creates a container for a private ritual to reconnect to Kinmen, a Taiwanese island, during the Second Taiwan Strait Crisis in the 1960s. The filmmaker reimagines her father’s childhood experience with the sparse memories he shared with her. The light was reenacted, the spirits were summoned. A tender gaze attempts to look through and experience beyond the light glares as if understanding a silent parent in the crack of the historical events.
