In the documentary “Millets Back Home,” we will see the everyday lives of the Tayal people, an indigenous people of Taiwan, stringing together the stories of three families with the unifying thread of millet (“trakis” in the Tayal language). The documentary brings to light the pressing issues indigenous people face today: the shift in farming patterns, the migration of indigenous youth, and the need for preserving and restoring traditional culture. With this film, Director Sayun also explores self-identity in connection with indigenous identity.
