What about Bready Then?

To save his favorite sheep ‘Bready’ from being sold by his father, the child, accompanying with his father, set out on a sheep-sale journey. By satisfying the buyer’s ‘special need’, the child managed to rescue ‘Bready’, only to find that the fate of ‘Bready’ had been incompatible with the whole flock.

 

That Morning

Set in Hong Kong, Eya is a shy teen who takes writing as a way to escape alienation, bullying, and loneliness. On the school fun day, Eya remains silent in the interview, but she is not the only one who finds life is too hard to bear. Everything is changed that morning.

Gao Xing, a hearing-disabled and vocally impaired person from a small town in China, an ordinary housekeeper at a Las Vegas casino hotel, always rummage through the guests’ luggage secretly while cleaning the room to search for clues about his sister who was adopted by an American family long ago. Hotel work is only a part of Gao’s life. He shuttles in the crowds at the most prosperous city with a teddy-bear suite after work and distributes the tracing notices to passers. At one afternoon, when Gao was cleaning a room, he encountered a girl who was going to the music festival near the hotel. After she left, in her suitcase, Gao found a little bear toy which was the one hand-stitched by her mother when he was young. Gao was smiling and tearing, but he couldn’t hear the continuous gunshots outside the window. The massive shooting at the Las Vegas Music Festival that shocked the world later on, is happening…
