In the quiet village of Xiangheli on the island of Taiwan, an 82-year-old man has become an unlikely symbol of unity. Liu Dewen, the village chief, has spent two decades fulfilling a solemn promise: helping elderly veterans reunite with their families after death. 🕊️
Known locally as \"The Ferryman of Souls,\" Liu coordinates the repatriation of remains to the Chinese mainland, navigating complex logistics and paperwork to honor soldiers' final wishes. His mission began with a single veteran's request in the 1990s and has since reunited over 200 families across the Taiwan Strait. 💼➡️❤️
\"These soldiers spent lifetimes yearning for home,\" Liu told CGTN. \"How could I say no?\" His story—a testament to enduring cross-strait connections—premieres December 11 in a documentary that's already sparking conversations about legacy and reconciliation. 🎥✨
