would it mean that he had lived for nothing?
Throughout my 27 years in detention and exile
you've sacrificed so much for me.
Grandma.
Yeah, I did. They are meeting us there.
Okay, can you sign here?
Kannan, help this young man put his grandma in
the car, please.
Yeah, sure.
Grandma
let's visit Father, okay?
Passports, please.
That day En was born
I stood on the other side of the Straits
staring at the shoreline in the distance.
I wish I could be there to hold your hand
the way you held on to mine all those years.
I never managed to tell you this.
Ma came to visit me that day.
She persuaded me once again to sign the false
confession.
To condemn my own convictions
so that I could come home.
"Your child has been born"
she kept saying
"Which is more important to you?"
Grandma.
"The Man Who Returned From The Sea"
That Utopia we so passionately believed in.
After all these years
how would you continue the story?
When the man came home
But they were too fearful of the sea
to believe in him.
Unwilling to leave his loved ones behind
he abandons the sea.
And attempts to forget that such a world exists.
He ends up only returning to the shoreline
at the end of his life
to realize that he only has enough courage
to stand at the water's edge.
Madam Choo, you are back.
Had a good time with your family?
Please sign here.
Where did your daughter-in-law bring you?
I'll help you bathe before you rest, okay?
They look so young!
They were only in high school.
Hey, this is the same picture!
Who's this woman?
It's my mother.
It is?
I can hardly tell.
No wonder she appeared so many times in the
other pictures.
She did?
Where?
There. Isn't that her?
And I think that's your father.
Do you know how to do it?
Do you?
I know.
So clever.
When was this taken?
On my 5th birthday.
Pass this to Wilson. It's done.
I remember the days
when all we did was write, perform and sing.
"Art is always and everywhere the secret
confession.
And at the same time the immortal movement of
its time".
I first came across that quote through you.
I was never as creative as you were.
So sought to document and preserve
the same way Pa does it.
I can't remember the last time I took a picture.
Do you remember the last time you wrote
something?
Throughout my 27 years in detention and exile
you've sacrificed so much for me.
Hian
After all that we've been through
I know it is very hard for you to hear this.
The cancer spreading in my body
is a reality we have to learn to accept.
Knowing that I can't be there for you
makes me feel so helpless.
But I believe you will make the right decisions
to give our son the life he deserves.
Tan Xiang En.
Are your nails dirty?
Want me to trim them for you?
Our photos have been destroyed.
Our story will probably never be heard.
My only hope
is that En will one day be old enough
to realize the sacrifices you've made.
Promise me
that you will live a fulfilling life
and continue to stay true to yourself.
Love,
Boon.
Training to be soldiers
Fight for our land
Once in our lives
Two years of our time
Have you ever wondered?
Why must we serve?
Hey Xiang En
Sir wants to see you in his office.
Why?
I don't know, just hurry up.
Platoon one! Fall in!
