Description:

The film "Gaga" delves into the intricate lives of a Taiwanese Indigenous Atayal tribe family across three generations. Their close-knit world begins to fracture following the death of the revered family head. With his passing, the very essence of "Gaga" – their deeply ingrained traditional beliefs and practices that maintain harmony between people and nature – also seemingly vanishes. This profound loss leaves the family disoriented and on the verge of complete breakdown, struggling to navigate a world without their guiding spiritual principles. Amidst their growing despair and internal conflicts, an extraordinary event unfolds: the long-awaited first snowfall blankets their land. This unprecedented phenomenon sparks a moment of collective reflection and hope, compelling the fractured family to confront their grief, reconnect with their ancestral heritage, and rediscover the enduring power of "Gaga" to heal their spirit and guide their future.
