No Puedo Vivir Sin Ti (不能沒有你) is an intimate portrait of the relationship between a father and his daughter. Wu-hsiung, played by Chen Wen-pin (陳文尉), lives in an abandoned warehouse by the harbor in Kaohsiung where he undertakes the dangerous job of diving to repair boats. His daughter Mei, played by Chao Yu-Hsuan (趙祐萱), is his constant companion. Although Wu-hsiung doesn’t have much money he obviously cares deeply for his daughter. When the police come to inquire about Mei’s household registration and sending her to school a bureaucratic nightmare begins.
The film is beautifully shot in black and white. It is based on a true story and directed by Leon Dai (戴立忍).
