This short film is precise to the feeling of religious and civil culture of Taiwan. Much better than it's derivative work "The Teenage Psychic". If you want to taste the authentic Taiwan culture, I recommend it with all my heart, instead of the shame produced by HBO, which is a mix of common elements in the whole world only with the intention to attract who know who, perfectly made that mini series a less-than-so-so.
