The tribal village gets misty in September, letting out an atmosphere as intriguing as Hayung’s family in this autumn-winter season. After Hayung’s homeland was occupied, one 80-year-old man devoted his whole life to worshiping GAGA. The traditions were forgotten by his descendants after his passing.Hayung’s family represented indigenous families in Taiwan. Each tribe represents a withering big family. The eldest son Pasang joins in the election campaign, neglecting the opposition from his family. The second son, who is a farmer, is thus affected. After the election campaign, the entire family is on the verge of falling apart, and the village witnesses the snow for the first time in a very long time. With snow melting, new lives emerge. The broken family starts mending and repairing.

九月的部落被霧包圍，如哈勇家這個秋冬的奇妙氛圍。哈勇的土地被侵佔之後，被80歲哈勇奉為一生堅定信仰的GAGA（泰雅傳統規範），在他離世之後，後代卻慢慢偏離。

哈勇一家是台灣原住民家庭的縮影，每個部落就是一個大家庭的概念式微。大兒子巴尚不顧反對加入選戰，務農的二兒子也被牽連，整個家族分崩離析。選戰結束，家庭陷入分裂之際，部落竟下起好久不見的冬雪；隨著融雪與新生命誕生，破裂的家庭關係與情感也慢慢修補與療癒。
