Director's statement
As the boy transitioned into adolescence, he gradually started resembling an adult. They got used to wearing black clothes and dashed through the dark night, releasing their youth at high speed, whether happy or sad. Facing a changing world and order with restless emotions, their tumultuous youth was like a spacecraft about to land—they were already the pilots of their own ships, controlling direction, speed, and goals.
Airplanes flew overhead across the night sky, while goods were swiftly transported on conveyor belts. They desperately ran forward, howling like a group of untamed wild horses in the depths of the night.
These young friends I met in an industrial area in Taiwan evoke memories of my comrades back home.
