Colors play a crucial symbolic role in political activities, as people use vivid attire to express their distinct political stances. "Hong Kong yellow" symbolizes democracy and freedom, akin to "Taiwan green," which signifies progress and independence. These colors share commonalities on certain levels. However, "Taiwan green" and "Taiwan blue" stand in opposition; the former supports progressive policies and sovereignty, while the latter is often associated with conservatism and support for unification.This film captures creators' discussions on the political symbolism of colors, including debates on whether "Hong Kong yellow" can coexist with "Taiwan blue," and specific differences between "Hong Kong blue" and "Taiwan blue." By analyzing individual color samples, it reveals the complexities and diversities behind these political symbols.

剛柔濟，綿綿情，酸鹹甜。機靈帶點小狡黠。好阿！

The audience would like to hear from the directors:
A student from the Department of Political Science at NTU and another from Graduate Institute of Trans-disciplinary Arts at TNUA were in dialogue, questioning, and finally embracing while sifting through video materials. In the film, there are three cameras: one belonging to Kathy, another to Karen, and a third is a scanner freely available in the library.

Here's what the directors actually want to say:
We, the 'OLD BUDDIES' living on Jianguo North Road in Taipei, had a blast this time. We're planning to quickly finish up and embark on a tour of Taiwan's independent bookstores. We operate under the motto 'applauding ourselves if no one else does.' Who would have thought we'd make it to the big screen in STFF ! Many thanks to Ivan CHEUNG and Helen CHOW! Many thanks to the judges!
