Blue Runners is adapted from the award-winning novel by CHANG Ying-min, directed by Golden Horse-winning filmmaker HUANG Shih-ming, and produced by veteran animator Joy CHIOU. The story follows a teenager struggling with depression who gradually breaks out of isolation through long-distance running, rediscovering purpose and meaning in life.

After an injury ends her track career, Pin-hua meets Ah-yuan, a boy struggling with depression but eager to run. Their journey together rekindles her love for the sport. Pin-hua forms a running team with Ah-yuan and rival Heng-hui, and they challenge an impossible relay race. As time passes, each faces personal struggles, but they ultimately find strength and healing through running together, learning that even in solitude, they are not alone.
