* Not to be confused with the 1979 version. Shot in Sucuo Village, in Tainan, Taiwan, by Chang Chao-Tang and Christopher Doyle, “The Boat Burning Festival” (1979) captures a ritual that takes place every two years. In 2019 a new, alternative version titled “The Boat Burning Festival+” featuring original music by Lim Giong was commissioned by M+ museum in Hong Kong.
