「 During the first lockdown in Malaysia, we went through not just the lockdown and losing jobs but also the changing of the federal government without an election... This movie represents the Society of Malaysia or especially the Chinese Community.」

— 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘈𝘔𝘗 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸𝘴: 𝘋𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘚𝘰𝘰𝘯 𝘛𝘦𝘪𝘬 𝘖𝘯𝘨

The film, shot in Penang, follows characters navigating their paths in the city, embodying the confusion and search for belonging that resonates with many Malaysians today, and what Soon Teik is trying to explore—his deeply personal and collective exploration of what it means to be Malaysian in these complex times.

兩名即將畢業的華裔女中學生,找上男同學拍攝聳動的抖音影片。三人在馬來西亞這片土地上遊蕩;看似有著明確的目標,卻又輕易地失焦。唯一肯定的是;三人都在「離去與留下」之間拉扯,在沮喪與悲觀的種族環境中掙扎。

於馬來西亞「既非...亦非...」的身份中,尋找多年未解的答案與源頭。

這是一部於疫情期間的製作,嘗試打破創作一定要高成本的迷思。或許讓意念凌駕尋常的敘事,沒有故事就是最好的故事。
