Cape No.7

Cape No. 7 has been billed “ the most successful Taiwanese film of all time”.
But making the movies almost brought financial ruin to Wei Te Sheng,who wrote, directed and co-produced. He was forced to refinance his house as well as burrow heavily from friends.
Though desperately short of funds, Wei never gave up. He mortgaged his house and borrowed from friends.
Cape No. 7 is a heartwarming small town tale bound together by music and love. Tagged as a music-based romantic comedy, it is a film that can make its viewers laugh and cry in turns.

Like how seven different colours make a lovely rainbow, seven incongruous characters make up a compelling rock band, and seven undelivered love letters change the lives of more then the intended recipients.
The film cost NT$50mil ( RM5.27mil ) to make and became a runaway hit, grossing more then 10 times its production budget with NT$520mil ( RM54.8mil ) in box-office receipts. Apart from the box office, it is also a multi-awards winners.
