They were once Taiwan’s wildest stunt heroes!
In the 1970s, a taxi driver led the nation’s top stunt riders and daredevil performers to form the "Shenfeng Stunt Troupe," risking their lives in breathtaking shows that packed arenas and made headlines across the island.
Now, the aging team leader’s youngest daughter sets out on a journey to find and reunite the former comrades who once "burned their youth on tires."
When the Rumble Sounds Again is a true and thrilling Taiwanese legend — a story that reignites the roaring engines and unyielding spirit of a generation that refused to give up.
