BEYOND BEAUTY-TAIWAN FROM ABOVE is the first movie documenting Taiwan with aerial photography. With professional aerial photographic equipment filming in high altitude, we see Taiwan in such height and angle that has never been seen before. Taiwan is so beautiful from the air when we see the landscape of mountains, oceans, lakes, rivers, forests, rice fields, fish ponds, and urban area; but we will also see the inevitable environmental changes, damage, and wounds caused by people in various kinds of developments. The land has strips of accumulated scars, with layers of contamination deposited in the ocean. Through the various themes and connected chapters, we transform into birds, soaring above Taiwan, to witness the island's beauty and sorrow together. This film was awarded with Best Documentary Film at Taiwans Golden Horse Awards.
