本屆南方影展片單中最具野心的停格動畫作品,不論製作規格和內涵的哲學性都有清楚的挑戰性! 也在2022年初勇奪金穗獎最佳動畫短片,媒材上使用大量柔軟的羊毛氈來詮釋生命中不可避免的沉重,呈現極具反差的視覺意象。音樂表現更是可圈可點,同樣獲得金穗獎最佳音樂的肯定。

We tried to explore how to insist on what we love if we are in a world that can't avoid being affected by others like this island? If we realize the world is a circle that can't escape, will we still take our chances and try again for our loved ones?
