And Miles to Go Before I Sleep

Vietnamese migrant Nguyen Quoc Phi dreamt of starting a business in his home country. In 2017, he was shot nine times by police officer Chen Chung-wen for a reported car theft. Public support for Chen came from Nguyen's resistance and drug use. However, questions about Nguyen's death challenge the perception of the imperfect victim.

'Our attitude towards minority groups distinguishes us from totalitarian regimes. While Taiwan is proud of its commitment to human rights, it appears to be premised on specific race and class distinctions. Nguyen’s death serves as an entry point to address structural problems. The 700,000 Southeast Asian migrant workers lack a voice, but positive changes can be initiated with your professional abilities, resources, and votes. Thank you for watching this film. Let's work together to make Taiwan a truly coexistent and prosperous country.' - TSAI Tsung-lung
