A Sun (陽光普照)

Where is he sitting?

Near the kitchen.

Fuck you.

You see that crooked tree over there?

Which tree?

Oh, I see it.

Come on,

put it in reverse.

Slowly...

Don't step so...

Stop...

INSTRUCTOR'S CAR

You went too far.

Start over.

Don't step so hard on the gas.

Start over again.

DRAGON PORT DRIVING SCHOOL

Mr. Zhang...

you've taken the test...

six times...?

We've gone from wearing long sleeves to short sleeves.

I have a reputation to keep at the school.

You know why you keep failing the test?

Because you insist on driving a manual car.

But driving an automatic car isn't real driving.

If the car moves, you're driving.

Who cares if it's manual or not?

Hold on.

Hello?

Where are you?

I'm working.

The judge was angry today.

He asked why the father didn't come.

Tell him I'm at work.

He wants to hear your opinion.

Can't you come and tell the judge to give A-Ho a chance?

Why not tell him that yourself?

The judge wants to see you and hear what you think.

You want to know what I think?

I hope he'll be locked up

until he's old and dying.

How can you say that?

Can you come by tomorrow?

All right.

Trouble at home?

TAIWAN TAIPEI DISTRICT COURT

Did you initially encourage Radish to attack Oden?

No.

Then why did he cut his hand off?

I don't know.

You don't know?

Did you know that he had a machete with him?

Only after we arrived.

Do you know that you can kill a person with a machete?

We only wanted to scare him.

The motorcycle you rode that night...

Who stole it?

Who stole it?

Speak.

A-Ho, tell them.

Are you placing all the blame on me?

-Tell them. -I wasn't asking you.

Sit down.

VICTIM'S SEAT

I stole it.

Assistant, anything to say?

Your Honor...

please recognize that the young man is remorseful.

Give him a chance to reform and return to society.

Anything from the parents?

Sir...

If you want my thoughts, I can tell you unequivocally...

as parents, we failed to discipline him.

We wouldn't succeed in the future either.

I hope you put him away to teach him some discipline.

Why did you say those things to the judge?

As I said on the phone, lock him up until he's old and dying.

You can't even give him this chance?

Didn't I just give him a chance to be locked away and repent?

Dad...

why are you here?

I brought you the tuition money.

I forgot to give it to you.

"Seize the day. Decide your path."

SEIZE THE DAY DECIDE YOUR PATH

The semester's almost over. Why give me this now?

Just for some encouragement.

If you don't need it, just use it as scratch paper.

Go on with your work.

The money's inside the book. Remember to pay.

Does Chen Jian Ho live here?

May I ask who...

Can we talk inside?

Are you busy?

Get over here.

Her name's Xiao Yu.

She's fifteen, in ninth grade.

I noticed her acting strange recently.

I took her to the doctor.

The doctor said she's pregnant.

I asked her who the father is.

She said it's Chen Jian Ho.

Can I have a look at the culprit?

Don't you know?

Know what?

A-Ho's been put away.

Put where?

He got into some trouble recently.

He's now in juvenile detention.

Great, Xiao Yu.

You didn't even mention a word of this.

What kind of mother are you?

Aren't you going to say something?

I...

All right.

See you in court.

Stand up straight.

I'm going to ask for your personal info.

Please answer clearly.

CHEN JIAN HO

"Those who regulate themselves commit few wrongs,"

Sima Guang says.

"A scholar who seeks the Way,

but is ashamed of poor clothing and food,

is not worth speaking to."

This "poor clothing and food," mind you,

doesn't mean "loathsome."

Some think it's "bad clothing," but it doesn't mean that.

It's...

Hey, you.

You there.

You there.

Yes, you.

Do you...

disapprove of the content of my lecture?

No, sir.

Or...

Or do you not believe what Sima Guang was saying?

Sir, do you believe it?

Honestly, I don't believe it either.

But what I do believe

is that you'll get the hell out of my class.

Go!

Let's continue.

INSTRUCTOR'S CAR

Get ready to change lanes.

Signal light 30 meters ahead.

Look 90 degrees in each direction.

Confirm no approaching cars.

Get ready to change lanes.

Changing lanes.

Changing lanes complete.

Ma'am.

You're driving in the middle of two lanes.

Oh...

It feels very different

driving on the road.

Instructor, are you married?

I'm married.

How many children?

One.

Are they working yet?

Not yet.

Next year, he'll be in medical school.

Newbie...

how long have you been here?

You've got to ask if you don't know the rules.

Got it?

Are you mute?

A-Bin, I'll do it.

Can't say hello?

Are you mute or something?

Stand up...

Stand up.

Stand straight.

Stand up straight.

What, you can't stand?

You can't stand?

Fuck you.

-Knock it off. -Fuck, let go.

That will do.

Stand up.
