In Our Times (literally “The Time of My Teenage Years”,) Truly Lin is an ordinary office worker who gets ridiculed by her subordinates. Dejected, she listens to an old Andy Lau song that brings her back to her high school days. There was a time Truly Lin received a chain letter, warning her of impending doom if not passing the message on. Hsu Tai-yu received the message and got injured in a car accident when reading it. After weeding out the letter’s sender, the angry Tai-yu made Truly Lin his ‘friend’ and forced her to run errands for him. Soon after, Tai-yu discovers a brain clot caused by the car accident and his parents decide to send him overseas, leaving Truly Lin with no way to contact him. 18 years later, Truly Lin and Tai-yu come across to each other in Andy Lau concert that takes place in Taipei.
A free screening and discussions of movies from a Buddhist perspective led by Dr. Peter Lin.
