One of life's pleasures is discovering universal stories told in languages other than mine. Yesterday, Cindy, Shie-fang, and I went to the Taiwan Film Festival in San Francisco to see Somewhere I Have Never Traveled. It's an extraordinary film from first time Director/Writer Fu-Tien Yu, with stellar performances by first time actors. Hopefully it will be released elsewhere and made available on DVD.

The title alone touches a chord from my youth; let's see:
somewhere i have never travelled,
gladly beyond
any experience,your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near
I'll search for the DVD. Thanks for sharing =)
I hope you get to see this film. It really is lovely. And thank you for sharing your poem.
