This film depicts my experiences and frustration when l were a teacher. The theme of the story is that three children joyfully swing a golf club to knock down the reflective road markers along the path. When the warning signs disappear one by one, who will lose their way in the darkness? It could be anyone living in the same space.
The film used plasterboards by pastel drawing and scratching for animation extensively, showcasing the pure joy and violence of children.

恣意搔首舞步、霓虹燈閃爍跳動、摩托車轟隆作響在多樣態素材的雜揉下展現出青少年張狂不羈的成長咆嘯。真的，歸剛欸…。
The red bugs in the video are called Dysdercus cingulatus. They are not very harmful to plants and animals, usually parasitizing on kapok trees and surviving by sucking the sap from the stems, leaves, and trunks. I chose them as a symbol of 'evil' in a child's heart because I once saw them gathering around a drainage hole, with their vivid red bodies crawling frantically over each other, which resonated with my own experience dealing with a group of children. The Dysdercus cingulatus undergo incomplete metamorphosis, transitioning from nymphs to adults. The black patterns on the back of the adult bugs resemble human faces, so I ultimately designed them with terrifying smiling faces to symbolize how 'evil,' if not healthily vented or corrected, can develop into an uncontrollable situation.
