US Secret Report: The Truth About Diaoyutai (Historical Bloodstains of Power) - Highly Recommended

This article introduces the documentary 'The Truth About Diaoyu Islands,' filmed by German-American Hollywood director Chris D. Nebe at his own expense. Through a detailed review of historical data, the film asserts that the Diaoyu Islands have belonged to China (Republic of China) since ancient times. It exposes Japanese war crimes during the invasion of China and criticizes Japan's refusal to face history and the US's role in the Treaty of San Francisco. From a Westerner's perspective, Nebe emphasizes the artist's conscience and responsibility toward history, calling for an apology from the Japanese government.

Eagles Want to Fly—Then Go Fly! Why Do Humans Go to Movie Theaters to Watch Natural Scenery?

This article criticizes Taiwan's documentary 'Eagles Want to Fly' and the film propaganda environment behind it. The author questions the commercialism of moving 'TV-grade' ecological documentaries to big screen, arguing audiences mostly participate due to 'supporting domestic films' or 'loving Taiwan' groupthink rather than substantive engagement with content. The author believes the film—aside from Wu Nian-zhen's narration and Lin Qiang's score—lacks substance, suggesting audiences instead directly donate money to bird societies for conservation, transforming sentiment into daily ecological reflection rather than consuming ecological issues through commercial cinema.
