This directorial debut feature narrates a 1994 Taiwanese student protest fighting for freedom and undeniable love.
新銳導演蘇奕瑄首部劇情長片,描述一段青春革命成長愛情故事。

In the 1994 post-martial law period in Taiwan, the students were in the midst of protest. Frustrated by the implicit obedience principle of the school, Wei, a female college student, joins the strike to fight for their freedom of expression. During the protest, Wei is slowly attracted to Qing, whose boyfriend, Guang, is the leader of the student strike. As passionate protest enflames personal desires, the chemistry between Wei and Qing gradually becomes vivid. However, Guang also shows a romantic interest in Wei.

Both the strike and their triangular relationship go wild and vibrant. The harder they love, the more hurt and damage they experience. The power and love struggles are closely intertwined. Eventually, Wei realizes her desires and emotions are unconstrained as their creative freedom. For her, it’s a protest of liberty and an inner fight for her self-awakening.
1994年,就讀美術系的季微,享受作畫帶給她的快樂,但這樣的純粹卻被傳統思想禁錮著,她參與罷課的抗爭,結識了學長阿光與魏青情侶檔,他們為季微打開了革命的世界。但魏青給季微的一個吻,讓她發現自己對魏青的情感不止於同性友情,也許對她而言,這已不只是一場體制與創作自由的抗爭,而是一場自我覺醒認同的革命。
