Bomb!
So you're Mouna Rudo
Now I see you clearly
Tado, how do we dodge those cannons?
Chief, let this ghost lead the way
Fire!
Look!
Cherry blossoms everywhere!
(Those who come forward voluntarily will be spared)
(Come to the shelters to surrender)
l'm crossing the rainbow bridge
l am Mouna Rudo
Look at the road l've trodden
No one's ever gonna stop us
The determined warriors
We're home with our enemy's heads
We're true warriors, like budding pine leaves
You must be starved
and you must be exhausted
It's time to decide your future
If you want to take your own life, do it
If you want to turn yourself in, go ahead
If you want to keep fighting..
Tado..
My dear son..
The hero of Mehebu Clan
Lead them to fight until you use up all your bullets
Father! -Chief..
Warriors, forgive me
Forgive me
I don't want the Japanese to insult me in front of my people
Forgive me
I'll be waiting for you on the mountain peak
Let's cross the rainbow bridge together to the eternal hunting ground
Father?
Go..Seediq Bale!
Chief Mouna?
Bakan,
bring over everyone from the chief's family
Iwan, go back and tell our people in the cavern
that those who don't want to surrender may as well kill themselves
I want to fight!
Me too! -It's over!
Mouna!
Mouna, where's your ancestral spirit?
Where is it?
There could be greater suffering if you survived
Wipe your face clean
Thank you, women and children
for sacrificing yourselves to complete the men's souls
She's awake!
That savage woman is awake!
Officer Kabasoa!
What's going on? -That savage woman is awake
Is it Mahung? -Yes, sir
Excuse me!
Let me through!
Mahung! Mahung!
Mahung..
I'm Kabasawa. I've been to your house
Do you remember me, Mahung?
Why did you save me?
My husband and children are waiting for me
Mahong..
100 dollars
Son of a bitch! What are you doing?
Don't put it on the desk!
What are you looking at? Next!
It's only a child. You can't get 100 for it
Get it off!
It's Temu Mouna from Truwan Clan
What child? Don't you see the tattoos on his face?
Put it over there! What a nuisance!
It's Tanah Robe, the Boarung chief
One of you from Gungu Clan killed our chief
This one is Pawan Nawi from Mehebu Clan
Ukan! Tado!
Where are you?
Where is that father going?
The father carrying a child on his back
is setting out to shoot the two suns in the sky
They go on and on for a long way
The child grows up
The father dies at an old age
The child takes his father's bow and arrows
The child follows his father's footsteps
toward the rising suns
He gets there at last
The child gets there at last
The child shoots a sun down with an arrow
The sun loses its rays
The dead sun becomes the moon
He's a sun-shooting hero
The sun-shooting hero is returning home
The sun-shooting hero has come a long, long way
The sun-shooting hero is home at last
But the hero is already gray-headed
l am drunk today
l saw him on the way
The boy from the freezing winter
A fair-skinned boy like a budding pine leaf
Let's dance together
Let's enjoy ourselves
l'm drunk today
Young girls, let's dance together
Surrender? Why should we surrender?
We've had our enemy's sake wine
Doesn't that mean conciliation?
Why do we have to surrender?
Tado... -Say no more!
Come on, drink with me
Mahung, my little sister...
it's much easier for me to die
than for you to go on living
But you must endure
and have lots of children
Teach them everything about the pride of our father
Let your children have even more children
and more and more..
Mahung, have lots of children
Raise them up to be proud Seediqs and to live on with pride
Do you understand?
Father, Baso and I..
along with all our fallen people
will be watching over you from the rainbow bridge
Look! The sun is so beautiful
Oh, my wife!
ls the wine ready now?
Here l come, my wife and children
On my way to the heavenly home of our ancestors
Wait a little longer for me please
l'll be seeing you soon
We're already on our way
Oh my wife and children, wait a little longer
Wait for us on the way to the heavenly home of our ancestors

We're about to cross the road
We'll be seeing you in no time

Those survived the battle killed themselves eventually
Why did I see in such a remote mountain area in Taiwan
the bushido of samurais that died over a century ago in Japan?
Is it because the cherry blossoms here are far too red?
No, these flowers have bloomed early this year
It isn't the season of cherry blossoms yet

a rainbow appears
and a proud man emerges

Who is this man so proud?

A Seediq Bale
Once upon a time on Mt. White Stone there was a big tree called Pusu Qhuni
The tree trunk was half wood, half stone
One day, a boy and a girl were born from the tree trunk
Then the couple gave birth to lots of children
and here we are, the Seediq Bale
Behold! The beautiful rainbow over the hilltop
My wife and children, have you brewed the wine?
Drink it! The wine we offer to our ancestors' spirits
Behold! What beautiful rainbow! My ancestors are calling me
