Poster for Footsteps

2022 · ★ 0.0 (0)

In Footsteps, Fiona Tan creates connections between personal stories and the world around us. The footage shows children at play and Dutch windmills, but above all people engaged in heavy physical labour in the countryside and in factories. In a fascinating juxtaposition, she combines these images with excerpts from letters she received from her father just after she moved to the Netherlands in the late 1980s. Through his education in Indonesia, Tan’s father knew a lot about the Netherlands without ever having visited the country. In the letters, he meanders seamlessly between personal news and world events, such as the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Tiananmen Square protests in Beijing.

2013 · ★ 5.0 (1)

A documentary investigating the truth behind the High Treason Incident of 1910, in which socialists and anarchists, including Shūsui Kōtoku, were arrested and sentenced to death or imprisonment amid the Meiji government's suppression of political thought.

It also examines the limited responses of Japanese literary figures to the incident, comparing them with reactions to the Dreyfus Affair in France, and follows the continuing efforts to uncover the truth and restore the victims' reputations.
