The Chinese-language movie is a thriller set in Taiwan starring Taiwanese actor Liu Hsiu-fu as Zijie, a teenage fencer who reconnects with his older brother, played by Taiwanese actor Tsao Yu-ning, after the latter ends a seven-year stint in juvenile prison.
Zijie is initially convinced that his brother is innocent of the crime he was convicted for – killing an opponent during a fencing competition – but begins to question this belief.

The movie had its world premiere at the Karlovy Vary film festival and was the only Chinese-language film selected for its top-ranked Crystal Globe Competition. The Crystal Globe Grand Prix eventually went to Northern Irish director Mark Cousins’ documentary of a modernist painter, A Sudden Glimpse To Deeper Things.
In an Instagram post made after the ceremony on July 7, Low posted photos of herself at the festival and a recording of her speech. She wrote in the caption: “Thanks to my entire team again, I couldn’t have done it without you.”
