Taiwanese farmer Du planned to raise shrimps in Myanmar. However, he did not expect what followed were white powders and guns. Su, an Asian-Burmese girl, after the marriage to her Burmese husband, Jojo, they decided to return to the shrimp farm that Su’s father dug 20 years ago. While Du was trying to escape the storm of betrayal, he was lucky to run into Su. Du and Su decided to cooperate and build their “Diamond Marine World”.

This film records the turns of humanity and the conflicts falling one after another as the rain in Myanmar.

本片歷時五年拍攝及製作,紀錄蝦場裡的人性轉折與事件衝突,恰如緬甸的雨季,一波波降下。

2015年一趟從泰國到越南的湄公河旅行,開啟我對台灣人如何在東南亞生活與工作的好奇心。台灣就在中南半島的不遠處,對東南亞國家卻相當陌生。我們知道東京、紐約的位置,卻不知道仰光在哪裡。在這趟拍攝過程裡,「我們」來自不同文化背景,各自擁有不同價值與信念,然而陌生會製造誤解與恐懼,於是我們也看見人與人、人與環境之間的各式衝突在鑽石水族世界中。這些夾雜各式滋味的衝突歷程,都是為了理解並看見彼此的真實樣貌。
