On the southernmost in Taiwan live a number of veterans, who are almost forgotten by the world. Belonged to an army known as Yunnan Anti-Communist National Salvation Army, they were the last guerrillas to retreat from Burma to Taiwan during the Chinese Civil War in 1961. Coming to Taiwan, they settled down and lived in virtual seclusion from the world in four villages by the Laonung River in the south of the island. As kids, still, they couldn't escape the fate of fighting those Communists. To survive, Ma, You-Fu had no choice but to join the guerillas at the age of ten and carried a riffle taller than he was in the mountains; Zhao, Quan-Ying joined the troop as a political officer at 15 and took on the responsibilities of propaganda and troop-cheering activities.

They started from scratch, developing the area, and grew old. Today, for the desire economic development, gravel trucks are thundering back and forth around the villages to ship away the gravel. excavator s are here digging one and another gigantic uncanny holes on their dear land, while another silent inner war just began as they face all these changes now.

On a bitterly cold morning in January 1946, an Irishman whose voice was as well known as Churchill's, was hanged in England's grim Wandsworth gaol. It was always inconceivable that William Joyce, known to millions as 'Lord Haw-Haw', would escape the death penalty. However, just as with Roger Casement a generation earlier, it took considerable legal ingenuity on the part of the British establishment to ensure that Joyce was hanged. Lord Haw-Haw was the classic traitor. Broadcasting to millions from Nazi Germany, he played a part in sapping the collective spirit of wartime Britain. A grotesque figure, laughed at but secretly feared, his psychological defiance was mythologised by prolonged wartime anxiety. Hitler's Irishman: The Story of Lord Haw-Haw is a documentary by noted British feature film director, Brian Gilbert, for whom the story of William Joyce has been a lifelong obsession. In all Gilbert's work (e.g. 'Wilde', 'Tom and Viv', 'Not Without My Daughter'), he has sought to peel away the layers of complex characters and reveal the dark heart of fanaticism, self-invention and attachment to ideals at all cost. Hitler's Irishman: The story of Lord Haw-Haw is a creative documentary portrait of the compulsive and complex Irishman who recreated himself in a romantic and imagined ideal of Englishness, which he took to a monstrous and fanatical degree that would ultimately lead to his own undoing. Fascist thug? Irish intellectual? British traitor? German hero? Who, in fact, was the real William Joyce?
