In 1995, the young Taiwanese woman writer Qiu Miaojin committed suicide in Paris’s Montmartre district, leaving behind the autobiographical novel LAST WORDS IN MONTMARTRE. Two decades later, the novel was published in English by the prestigious New York Review Books, bringing Qiu renown in Western literary circles and quickly prompting translations into other European languages. Qiu is considered the first openly lesbian novelist in the history of Chinese literature; her debut novel, NOTES OF A CROCODILE, became a “Bible” for the Taiwanese lesbian community and an underground classic in Taiwan and Hong Kong, with an official edition finally published in 2012. DEATH IN MONTMARTRE travels through Taiwan, Paris, and New York to trace the life of this literary star who enjoyed fame only after her death, interviewing literary masters from Taiwan, France, and the U.S. while discussing LGBTQ culture and lesbian literature from a perspective of equality.
「摩梭」位于云南省丽江地区宁蒗县永宁乡，是中国唯一的母系社会，男不娶、女不嫁，人们终生与母亲同住，没有主流社会的婚姻与家庭。摩梭人重女不轻男，没有「男压迫女」或「女打压男」的问题﹔女女男男在性别与性事上轻鬆自在，人间罕见..。在如此平等、自在的文化模式裡，会刺激你反思哪 些？我们又学到什麽？工作小组在没水没电的摩梭山区裡生活一年多，进行母系文化研究，收穫甚丰，且完成纪录片《三个摩梭女子的故事》。本片没有旁白，纯由摩梭人自行述说，透过老中青三代摩梭女子的生活与对话，来呈现母系摩梭文化的独特风采。
本片亦为「摩梭山区教育基金」筹款，门票收入扣除场租、全数拨归「摩梭山区教育基金」，以期山区失学儿童能重返校园。仅50元门票，已足以支付一个山区小学生的半年学费。
