他是我同學，2008年秋天，我們都為了拍畢業片而苦惱不已。

在找不到題材的情況下，我拿起攝影機拍他，隨他南奔北走，看他如何在工作跟學業的夾縫中求生存。後來，我們一起經歷了民進黨的圍城行動、野草莓學運、失憶的老人與跳啦啦隊的阿公阿嬤，還有流亡的中國人和西藏人……

畢業的期限日日進逼，他卻還必須面對另一個纏繞他多年的，更大的難題……

He was my classmate. In the fall of 2008, we were stressed out by the senior film project.

Without a topic in mind, I started filming him and his busy travels as he struggleswith both job and schoolwork. Eventually, we had been through DPP's Siege
Demonstration, the Wild Strawberry Student Protests, amnesiac elders, cheerleading grandparents and Chinese and Tibetan outcasts...

With graduation drawing near, he had to also face another problem that was bigger and persistent...

※導演的話

一個朋友問，這是一部關於紀錄片工作者的紀錄片嗎？
我說，好像是，又好像不是。
朋友又問，那是關於在台流離者的紀錄片囉？
我說，好像是，又好像不是。
他接著問，還是…你想討論的是紀錄者與被攝者的關係呢？
我說好像是，可是又好像……
另一個朋友聽得不耐煩了，插話說：
你這片，根本就是四不像嘛！

我想他說對了。

One of my friend asked me whether the theme of this documentary has something
to do with a documentary man?
I replied: maybe, and, maybe not.
Then he asked, then is it a documentary about the diaspora who is wonderlanding in
Taiwan?
I replied: maybe, and, maybe not.
He then asked...are you...trying to discuss the relationship between the
documentary film worker and his subject?
I replied: maybe, but, maybe...
Another friend lost his patient and said : This film seems neither fish nor fowla!

I think he is right.
