某天深夜,Yu Jie 打完工骑摩托车回家,途中遭遇车祸。他是大学生,也是网页设计师;父亲已失业三年,母亲几乎不和丈夫说话,全心扑在孩子身上,妹妹则刚进入青春期。肇事的老人将自己的房子过户给 Yu Jie,每月支付他的医疗费和生活费以作弥补,却依然饱受愧疚折磨。与此同时,原本在经济和情感上濒临崩溃的 Yu Jie 一家,渐渐又围坐在一起吃晚饭,重新成为一个家。差不多同一时间,Yu Jie 也与他的物理治疗师 Yi-han 日渐亲近。然而,这份“平凡”的幸福只是昙花一现。2005 年以首部长片《人鱼朵朵》入选釜山国际电影节“新浪潮”单元的李芸婵,携一部分量厚重的剧情片回归。她以更冷峻的目光审视现实,描绘人生的反讽,层层交织那些无论如何都得活下去的人们的故事,编织出绵密的叙事。李芸婵在沉思与同情之间保持审慎的平衡,又完成了一部令人难忘的台湾家庭剧。
