Camille Chen \| Director & Producer \| Legend Media	Feb 03, 2023 12:30 PM	One China, an Unfinished Story of War and Peace The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) war with the Kuomintang (KMT, or Nationalist Party) started in the 1920s. Shortly after the end of WWII and the surrender of Japanese, China’s civil war flared up again, continuing until Mao Zedong established the People’s Republic of China in 1949, while approximately 2 million KMT military forces and refugees fled to Taiwan following Chang Kai-shek. My father was one of them. Due to the KMT’s no-contact policy with China, many soldiers who fled to Taiwan were cut off from their loved ones and dreaming of recovering their motherland China for more than four decades. When the Martial law was lifted in 1987, my father wrote his first letter home, and it took him two years to post that letter to Northern China just in time for the Chinese New Year. Born in Taiwan and educated in the US, Camille has more than 15 years’ experience as a content creator and producer specialising in international co-production from advertising to feature films in both Australia and China. Camille’s directorial début feature Little Sparrows (2010) was sold to US, UK & China; and received critical acclaim including standing ovation at Rome International Film Festival premiere screening. In 2017, Camille co-founded Legend Media Group, a Perth-based film production company that has a focus on telling Australian/Chinese stories that respond to both the Australian and Asian markets.
