At the end of WWII, the Nationalist party of Republic of China, also known as the Kuomintang (KMT), took control of Taiwan and imposed martial law for 38 years. This period is known as the White Terror, where anyone suspected go being a Communist agent was hunted down. Through a 7-year-old girl’s point of view, The Black Kite brings us back to the innocent, yet high-handed time of the 1960s Taiwan.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
