Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale I
During the Japanese rule of Taiwan, the Seediq were forced to lose their own culture and give up their faith. Men were subject to harsh labor and kept from traditional hunting; whereas women had to serve the Japanese policemen and their families by doing the household work and giving up their traditional weaving work. Above all, they were forbidden to tattoo their faces. And these tattoos were seen as the Seediq's traditional belief to transform themselves into Seediq Bale ("true humans"). Mona Rudao, the protagonist, witnessed the repression by the Japanese over a period of 30 years. Sometime between autumn and winter 1930, when the slave labor is at its harshest, a young Seediq couple are married and a joyful party is thrown. At the same time, a newly appointed Japanese policeman goes on his inspection tour to this tribe. Mona Rudao's first son, Tado Mona, offers wine to the policeman with gusto, but is in return beaten up because his hands were considered not clean enough. With anger, Tado Mona and his brother Baso Mona attack the policeman. And from that day onward, their tribe is living in the shadow of being the object of revenge by the Japanese. In a few days, a group of youth surround Mona Rudao. They strongly request him to lead the retaliation against the Japanese. Mona Rudao struggles for a long time between extending his fellow's lives and fighting back for dignity, until he sees these youngster's faces - clear without Seediq's tattoos - that he made up his mind. He tells the youngsters, "Japanese troops out-number the stones in Dakusui River, more intensive than the leaves in the forest, but my determination fighting them is ever stronger than Mt. Kire." "Children! On the tip of the Rainbow Bridge led to home of our ancestor's spirits, there is another beautiful hunting range. Our ancestors are all there! Remember, only brave spirits can enter this place, and we can never lose it. My fellows, let us hunt the heads of our enemies, and we wash our spirits with blood so that we walk the Rainbow Bridge to be always with our ancestors." The film Seediq Bale depicts the Wushe Incident, which occurred in central Taiwan during the Japanese rule. When the Seediq Bale, believing in the Rainbow, and the Japanese, believing in the Sun, met one another, they fought. The leader of Seediq Bale, Mona Rudao, led 300 warriors fighting against 3000 Japanese troopers. The only thing they forgot was whether it was the Rainbow or the Sun they believed in; they actually believed in the same sky.

Love Locks
Lindsey Wilson (Rebecca Romijn), who owns/operates a successful local New York art magazine, is offered a few propositions by Trent Greer (David Julian Hirsh), an international publisher--he would like to buy her magazine to take it to a larger market, she who would retain the role as consultant and who would be allowed to retain her key staff; and he would like to date her. Lindsey's assistant Maggie believes she would be crazy not to accept the date as she considers Trent the most handsome man on the face of the Earth. Lindsey will have time to mull both proposals over as she is taking a week long trip to Paris with her 18-year-old daughter Alexa Wilson (Jocelyn Hudon), who is following in her mother's footsteps in taking a semester in the art program at the Sorbonne under Hugo Blanchet (Bruce Davison), who was Lindsey's mentor when she was a student there. Lindsey, who has not been to Paris in 20 years since she was a student, hopes that Alexa will not follow in another of her Paris footsteps, namely falling in love while she's there. Lindsey fell in love with an American named Jack Burrow (Jerry O'Connell), the son of a businessman whose primary holdings were in Europe, Jack who broke her heart by not following her back to the States following her art studies. A symbolic aspect of that heartbreak was that the lock they were going to affix to one of the bridges over the Seine to signify their love accidentally fell into the river instead. Soon after Lindsey and Alexa's arrival in Paris, Lindsey runs into Jack. Although their meeting is a surprise to both of them, it is not as accidental as it first appears. Although he is dating a woman named Nicole who is a bit more advanced in the relationship than him, Jack quickly falls in love with Lindsey all over again, he hesitant to tell her so because of what happened 20 years ago and the fact that they currently live in two different established worlds. Alexa meeting and falling in love with Jean-Paul (Benjamin Sutherland), a bellboy at their hotel who is also a student at the Sorbonne, and their encounters with a recently widowed British tourist named Kathryn Daltry, who is in Paris for the first time without who was her long time husband, may factor into what happens between Lindsey and Jack. But the biggest factor may be the arrival in Paris of Trent, who, beyond the issue of work and the magazine, takes measures to sweep Lindsey off her feet.
