    • Synopsis
    • Young boy Han lives in the mountains with his great grandmother who amuses him with legends about the sparrows in the sky. One day, his mother finally brings him back to the city, but what awaits him is different than what he expected. In his urban home, Han can only watch his mother struggle and suffer as she works as a club hostess and fights endlessly with her abusive boyfriend.

      Nominated for four prizes at the Golden Bell awards, Shih Li's acute and melancholic drama highlights how the world's a cage for those forced to pass on their pain and helplessness from one generation to another.

      Shih Li’s WILD SPARROW is a film of radical dichotomies managing to juggle the meditative with the heart-wrenching, all placed against the rural and urban jungles of Taiwan. At its heart, the film is a transgenerational tableau depicting a fragmented family.
