Description:
This film documents epiphytic canopy researcher Xu Jia-Jun and the "Tree Seekers" team she leads in their quest to find Taiwan's tallest tree. Following the tree-seeking team on their mountaineering expeditions, the filming covered many remote mountain areas of Taiwan, from north to south: the Qilan Mountain area, the upper reaches of the Da-An River, the Bian-Ji-Yan and Tai-Gang River area, the Tao-Shan and Shi-Lun Mountain region, the Da-Xue-Shan forest road, the Ka-She River basin along the Dan-Da forest road, the Ka-A-Lang River, and the Da-Gui Lake and Ben-Ye Mountain area. Show more In addition to the on-location filming of the tree-seeking process, the film also includes the creation of panoramic photographs of the Tao-Shan sacred tree and the dismantling of a cableway for timber transport. How the tree-seeking team finds giant trees deep in the mountains, how they predict the height of these giants before the journey, and how they climb the towering trunks to measure their height in person—all of this is captured in the film with rare and valuable documentation.
