Children From The Distant Planet: My Name Is Choy Jie 2011

Rejecting the stereotypes surrounding autistic individuals, Golden Bell Award-winning director Shen Ko-shang's documentary series about autism in Taiwan likens these unique souls to beautiful beings from another planet, making a sincere effort to bridge the gap between the two "planets." This standalone episode focuses on the touching story of a father who has bravely taken on the daunting responsibility of bringing up his autistic son through tremendous love and patience. With the endorsement of filmmaker Chen Kuo-fu and stars like Kwai Lun-mei, Zhou Xun and Aloys Chen, this documentary encourages viewers to reflect on what it means to be human, and to gain a better understanding of both oneself and others.
