A haunting supernatural mystery rooted in historical trauma, where a ghost story becomes a vehicle for examining institutional oppression and generational guilt in 1960s Taiwan.

During the period of martial law in 1960s Taiwan, some teachers and students from Cui Hua High School were arrested for possessing banned books. A female student fell to her death and rumors spread of a ghost haunting the campus. Thirty years later, the draconian culture of the school remains unchanged as a new transfer student uncovers the dark secrets behind the school’s haunting.
