Regardless of identity, the traumatic memories of every individual on this island should be treated with dignity and respect.

Kaohsiung served as an important military base under Japanese rule. It suffered heavy casualties during the 228 Incident, in which civilians were brutally suppressed. The film shows how each individual is surviving and sustaining their memories through different eras of oppression. To this day, memories of it still live in some people and places as well as the wild tomatoes that are grown on this land.
