Plot
Growing up in a rural family in Changhua, Wu Sheng's poetry has been rooted in the countryside, and he has been cultivating the land and hammering out his poems for decades. In 1972, Wu Sheng published twelve poems entitled "Impressions of My Hometown" (吾鄉印象) in the magazine "You Shi Wen Yi", in which he cried out for the land and expressed his sincere feelings for the countryside, giving Taiwanese rural literature a clear face. Wu Sheng's poetry collection "Ni Tu" (泥土), "Ta Hai Nian Qing" (他還年輕), and his essay collection "Nong Fu" (農婦), notes on the "Bi Ji Zhou Shui Xi" (筆記濁水溪), are written with a deep love and sadness for the land, yet at the same time highly critical. With the protection of the environment as his vocation, he is a self-proclaimed social writer, redefining the boundaries of poetry through practical social engagement. The documentary "He's Still Young" was shot over a three-year period in 2017, following Wu Sheng through the countryside of Changhua, investigating the ecology of the Turbid River, flying to Iowa, USA, to reminisce about attending a writing class, and visiting a writer who is also a teacher and friend in Vancouver. The film coincided with the attack on the poet's daughter, Wu Yin Ning, during the North Farming incident. During this period, the poet was unable to write poetry and had to face the greatest setback and impact of her life, but reluctantly wrote a book at the bottom of the valley to record the events. The film chronicles the poet's emotional transformation over the past two years, from anger, anguish, frustration, struggle, to rebirth and sublimation, thus testifying that poetry is the ultimate salvation of the turbid world.
