In this film, we see people’s lives intertwined in a remote town in Taiwan. Their stories show difficulties they face in their respective lives and are witnesses to the environmental changes of the town. Day and night, smokes come out of the chimneys of the plant, the plant that provides employment for the town people. The issue in hand is not simply about the environment, but also a town’s people and their livelihood. When confronted with changes, where can you go and what can you do? When presented with the dilemma between livelihood and environment, what would be your choice?
