童年时候的阿赞一直都想离开这个村子，他一直在等，等到他的个子再长高一些，等到他的钱存的再多一些。等到有一天，离开家乡成为歌手的他，再次回到了这个村子，他与久别重逢的朋友谈论历久弥新的神话，在风恬月朗的夜晚泛舟捕鱼，打赌去水里憋气，然而他却消失不见了。这一次，他真的离开了吗？故事要从阿赞的童年说起......
Maybe I forgot to tell you, I am quite obsessed with unnecessary knowledge. When I was 12, I read an encyclopedia cover to cover. I found the title “Year Without A Summer” from Wikipedia. It was 1816, and there was no summer in that year. In some places in America and China, there were even snowfalls during summer. I can imagine the climate abnormalities must have stirred a sense of doom day at that time. The crops died, the sky was often orange tinted, famines and war broke out everywhere... the fear, and the confusion. Many years later, scientists believe that the climate abnormalities were mainly caused by the eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia of 1815, the largest known eruption in over 1,600 years. My story is not about volcano eruption, nor climate abnormalities. My story is about how people often live, without knowing much about what happened to them. In a way, my film is about history of sadness.
