Sitting in the deep mountains of Wutai, at the southernmost tip of the Central Mountain Range, Cekele Adiri, the Adiri Community, was relocated down the mountains to permanent housing after Typhoon Morakot. Traveling often between Taichung and Cekele Adiri, the urban indigenous kid Muni Druluan finds the road home thus much shorter.
However, images of spending time with the family did not follow the relocation, but remained there, deep in the mountains. Coming to Smangus Community, 1,500 meters above sea level, what childhood memories will Muni recall, surrounded by mountains and forests? How will Muni feel after her encounter with the Atayal people who have successfully developed indigenous community tourism by working in solidarity?
Note: “Patarwamara: matyangulwalwadhane ka vai” means “Heritage: Very Charming Atayal” in Rukai language.
