Through her 1976 book The Stories of the Sahara, and numerous other publications, famed Chinese-born, Taiwan-raised author Sanmao inspired generations of young women yearning for independence from conservative social norms. Setting Sanmao’s words against archival footage and old films, directors Ana Pérez de la Fuente and Marta Arribas weave together an epic retelling of her extraordinary and complex life.
