Have you seen the award-winning movie "Seediq Bale" yet? I saw the first part and really liked it. Looking forward to the second, although I hear it's even more gory.

A few weeks ago, we did a travel piece that's somewhat related.
Here it is, in English and in Chinese.

The movie "Seediq Bale" has recently brought much awareness to the Seediq tribe and its culture. Practically just about anything Seediq these days is a topic of interest, including the hot springs in which they used to soak.
Li Ji-tian,Seediq Expert:
The Seediq lived in Renai Township. Nantou has the highest hot spring density in the country, and many are here in Renai. We have carbonic acid springs here.
Following a nice hot bath is a tasty meal made from very simple ingredients.
Li Ji-tian,Seediq Expert:
Food in those days was very simple. They ate whatever that the rivers and mountains provided.
If they caught a bore, they'd trade it with people at the bottom of the mountain for salt, and salt was the only seasoning they had. At that time, there was no refrigerator either, so when they caught a bore, they'd salt it to preserve it. That's why there is a lot of salted bore in their cuisine, and also shrimp and freshwater fish.
During the Japanese occupation, the Seediq decided to fight and to take back their dignity and sacred hunting grounds. One day, Mona Rudao, a Seediq chief launched a brutal attack.
After a second incident, there were less than 300 Seediq tribespeople left, and all of whom were then relocated to an internment camp.
If you're looking for a bit of history and culture to go with a hot spring trip, Nantou's Renai Township will not disappoint.

賽德克舞蹈表演
最近相當受歡迎
因為電影「賽德克巴萊」
越來越多人開始對這一個
原住民族群很好奇
想要更加認識賽德克文化
您知道嗎?
賽德克族其實很愛泡湯
賽德克文化推廣人: 李吉田
賽德克族住在仁愛鄉
我們知道南投是
全國溫泉密度最高的縣份
尤其是集中在仁愛鄉
這裡的溫泉是碳酸的溫泉
賽德克文化推廣人: 李吉田
原住民
他們都找有溫泉的地方居住
很方便嘛
我們上山打獵回來要洗澡的話
跳到溫泉裡面就可以洗澡了
就非常的方便
這邊的溫泉 是碳酸溫泉
水質清澈 無色無香
不過說到溫泉
當然也要來點美食囉!
賽德克文化推廣人: 李吉田
當時的料理非常簡單
靠山吃山 靠溪吃溪
打到山豬後就拿到平地
跟平地人換鹽巴
所以主要當時的配料
就只有一個鹽巴
當時也沒有冰箱
所以我們打到山豬之後
就把鹽巴灑一灑之後
就把它保存下來
所以我們現在就吃得到鹹豬肉
或者是溪蝦 溪魚
一些餐廳就從這種
簡單料理的原則
用著當地的食材
研發出原住民風味餐
菜色包括水蕨山豬肉
鹽酥溪蝦 蔥蒜烤雞
烤溪魚 烤香菇
檳榔花炒肉絲 冰鎮烤地瓜
雖然冰鎮烤地瓜感覺
一點都不原始
不過冰冰甜甜的
很適合當飯後甜點
而且因為很健康
多吃幾塊也不會有罪惡感
吃飽飯 來聽聽故事
莫那魯道和賽德克族的故事
在日治時代
為了捍衛自己的家園
祖靈的獵場 族人的尊嚴
莫那魯道決定在日本人
舉辦霧社運動會的時候
帶頭出草
賽德克文化推廣人: 李吉田
1930年的10月27日
發生霧社事件
總共當時有六個部落參與
到最後賽德克族戰敗之後
戰死的大概有五百多人
剩下的五百多人被俘虜 投降
五百多人被俘虜之後
被集中在目前仁愛國中那邊
他們族與族之間有個對抗
他們知道賽德克族被關在
這個集中營之後
又發動了二次的霧社事件
殺掉了兩百多人
結果只剩下兩百多人
日本人怕說族跟族當中的矛盾
怕同樣的事情再發生
所以就把他們遷移到
目前這個地方來
您正鳥瞰著的就是
當時的集中營「川中島」
以前在山上靠打獵填
飽肚子的賽德克族人到了平地
因為不會種田
讓生存成了個大問題
賽德克文化推廣人: 李吉田
就是讓他們自生自滅
當然到這邊來 什麼都沒有
然後他要外出的話
也要經過日本人的同意
然後找到一個時間點
帶他們到鄰近的埔里街上
比如說採購一些物品
然後再回來
所以生活上非常有受到限制
被困在川中島 無法打獵
好在附近部落的泰雅族人
教了他們如何耕作
南投仁愛鄉
除了溫泉 美食
還有充滿了故事性的
賽德克歷史和文化
這次的旅遊行程 真是知性啊!

Nice how they neglected to add why the Seediq attacked the Japanese.
