Local media in Xiamen responded actively and within just two days, valuable information was provided. It was discovered that the woman's actual name was Liang Xiujin. In the Minnan (south of Fujian) dialect, "Kam" is equivalent to "Jin", which translates to "gold" in Chinese.
"That's why Weaver called her 'Goldy'! It suddenly made sense to me," Fang recalls.
Liang had passed away. Fang then arranged an online meeting on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival for Chinese family reunions, to introduce Liang's daughter to Weaver's nieces.
"War destroyed this love story. However, this film has connected the descendants of these two individuals," Fang says. "It's a heartwarming tale from Xiamen."
