Purchase: http://www.der.org/films/voices-of-orchid-island.html This film focuses on the Yami on Orchid Island, a small island located 45 miles off the southeast coast of Taiwan in the Pacific Ocean. The film explores the complex and often troubled relationship the Yami community has with the outside world by looking in detail at three different cases of "invasion" it has experienced.

Hi, I really appreciate this documentary. I am a native of Batanes, the Northernmost islands of the Philippines. I am amazed that we and the Orchid Island people have some similarities Like the native house architectures and the dialect spoken (i.e. "kuman" in our dialect is also "eating") . Thank you for posting this video :))
