This film has documented14 interviews with local young artists of approximately the same age and same generation as the Director, the Post-70, one might say using the fashioned term. After finishing tertiary education, they were immediately challenged with the recurrent economy downturn and a society too rigid and suffocating for alternatives. Sustaining their arts persual under such circumstances, and take it as a career is simply suicidal. While we keep our fingers crossed for these hearty young people, their reasons and journey to becoming artists are ant-biting our curiosity. Previous art-related experiences, upbringings, studies, works or life-turning incidents may be the explanations, but what is it they most concern about after all? Is Hong Kong a feasible place for their arts development?
