The island nation of Tuvalu is the first country expected to be eradicated by rising sea levels associated with climate change. This winner of the Grand Prize and Best Documentary Prize at the Taipei Film Festival examines the situation in Tuvalu and draws parallels to flooding in the Taiwanese town of Tainan, pointing to systematic ecological neglect as the common denominator between Tuvalu’s problems and those of Taiwan.
