摘要

The Taiwan films by two Han settler directors, Bai Jingrui’s Home Sweet Home (Jia zai Taibei, 1970) and Lee Hsing’s The Land of the Brave (Long de chuanren, 1981), show an ambivalent settler colonial mentality wavering between the old and new “homelands” (mainland China and Taiwan), and reflect a mode of settler anxiety responding to Taiwan’s ambiguous international status from the 1970s to the early 1980s. Taiwan’s settler colonial situation should be understood not only through the transnational triangular context between the old colonial metropole (China), settler colony (Taiwan), and Indigenous population, but also through another triangular relationship between the exogenous neocolonial power (US), the Han settlers, and Indigenous peoples. Most importantly, the films’ narratives of settler justification with respect to “home” and “land” via their cinematic languages are premised on the elimination of Indigenous population and usurpation of land.
