This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Somewhere I Have Never Traveled (帶我去遠方) is a 2009 Taiwanese film about the lives of and relationship between two teens, a high school-aged boy and his younger niece. The movie begins by showing the nature of their relationship to each other, their family, and what makes them kindred spirits. It then jumps ahead about five years, when the boy discovers there is more to life than basketball and working in the family's candy store, but his niece is not so sure she likes the new complication.
The film stars Austin Lin as Ah-hsian, Yu Shin as high school Ah-gui, and Li Yun-yun as child Ah-gui, Mei Fang as the Grandmother, Li Yung-feng as Ah-guì's Father, and Lin Mei-hsiu as the travel agent. (Ah- in Chinese is similar to the diminutive in English of John to Jonnie, Don to Donnie, Joan to Joanie, etc.)
Somewhere I Have Never Traveled received nominations in the Asian Film Festival circuit, and was recognised by the San Francisco Film Society. The movie was featured at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
