The film "White Coal" is not just about coal, but rather a exploration of industrial film motifs from the 1920s to the present. Loosely inspired by Hermann Melville's "The Confidence Men", the movie follows two threads: a crew of workers on a Polish coal ship and the architecture and circumstances of coal burning at the world's largest coal burning power plant in Taiwan.
