時光台灣1951-1965

Bumper Harvest

Can we imagine what situations our famers faced more than half a century ago? It was a time when agricultural machinery, irrigation system and artificial fertiliser began to be introduced into farming in Taiwan. Narrated in the Taiwanese dialect, A Bumper Harvest invites us to travel back to visit the Taiwanese farmland in the 1950s.

The Agrarian Reform

The terms such as "the 375 rent reduction", "leasing of government-owned land to tenants", "the sale of public land to farmers" and "land reform" which appeared only in the text books are now being passionately spoken in this film, bringing us back to the strict regime more than six decades ago.

Happy Farm Life

In a Taiwanese farming village in the 1950s, love permeates the air. What will happen when the three main components in fertiliser - nitrogen, sulphur and potassium, are catalysed by love? Well, let the young dashing agricultural instructor show you the answer!

How to Build the Kitchen Sink

Our living styles change with time. The arrival of kitchen sinks saves us a lot of time and labour, and keeps our kitchens clean. Nonetheless, do you know when it began to appear? Guess how our grandmas cooked before the invention? Don't tell me you know anything about the kitchen design before you see this film!

Preventing the Spread of Disease

We see how bacteria disturb the poor girl's sleep, and as a result, she cannot go to school and play with her friends! We see foreigners show us how disease is spread through saliva and sneezing, and kissing seems so dangerous! Moreover, you'll never forget how funny the narrator sounds in the film!

How Disease Travels

When one coughs, the whole family fall ill? When a cold spreads in a family, the whole village gets affected? This lively American animation narrated themselves as well as their family.

Family Planning in Taiwan

Family planning is the most important public health project in Taiwan in the 1960s, and it changed the demography of Taiwan in just two decades. Facing such a high birth rate, the medical staff promoted "Lippes loop", an invasive contraceptive device from the US, so hard that it became the most popular choice for women.

The Livestock Industry in Taiwan

The film aimed to draw the farmers closer. Narrated in Taiwanese dialect and set on a farm in the romanticised rural area, it demonstrates how a boar of a foreign origin mates with a sow of a Taiwanese breed in detail.
