LA PALOMA (2026)

傳奇女伶 高菊花

A dazzling voice silenced by dictatorship—this is the untold story of Kao Chu-hua, the Latin music sensation known as ‘Pa Nana’ who ruled Taiwan’s nightclubs in the 1950s and 60s. After her father was executed during the White Terror, she became the sole breadwinner for her family, singing under constant state surveillance. Through intimate family accounts and newly released government archives, this documentary pieces together her defiant existence, uncovering the resilience of a woman who survived oppression, fear, and enforced silence under a regime that demanded she stay quiet.
