Throughout the fifties, Taiwan was subject to a sweeping anti-communist campaign known as the White Terror. During this period, political dissidents and suspected sympathizers who spoke out against the Chinese Kuomintang government were imprisoned or executed. A collective paranoia thrived on the island as many simply disappeared without a trace. Han-sun is a dashing fighter pilot. Having served in the civil war against the communists in mainland China during the late forties, he finally moves to Taiwan with his devoted wife, Ping, and his lovely daughters, Li and Zhou. Though they seem to walk through life without a care, a happy ending is not in store. The family's dreams of a serene future are irreparably shattered one bright autumn afternoon when the girls return from school to find their home ransacked by the military police and their parents thrown in jail as suspected communist spies. Now at the mercy of Uncle Ding, a low-level government bureaucrat with a terrifying scarred face, the sisters quickly discover that reality is not what it appears to be.
