Moon children

Description

Documentary-maker Wu Yii-Feng delivers a tour de force in Moon Children, a fascinating chronicle of albinos living, working, and finding recreation in modern-day Taiwan. Dubbed moon children by the San Blas Indians, albinos were isolated from society and only allowed to work at night. Times have changed, but prejudices have not, and albinos of today still experience discrimination and cruelty.
