Steeped in the communist history of 1940s Taiwan, the sensitively interlaced stories of Good Men, Good Women unfold as a film-within-a-film. Liang Ching, an actress, gets ready to star in a World War 2 era film about Taiwanese Communists who threw themselves into the anti-Japanese resistance. But when stolen pages of her diary start surfacing, painful memories of a dead lover trigger flashbacks. Past and present start to bleed together as the plot of the film mixes with Liang's own personal history.

"...[a] sinuous, meticulously constructed tableaux, which unfold hypnotically" Richard Brody, The New Yorker

"Evokes a stunning emotional response... a rigorous work of art whose mysteries are worth unraveling."Caryn James, The New York Times.
