After years of illness, Ken’s wife finally passes away. Ken returns to his job as streetlight repairman after the funeral. Having to work at night, he rarely sees his daughter Ann, who develops a fear for darkness since her mother dies. Often left alone at home, she learns to grow up at a tender age. She makes her father agree to go out and play with her on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, but Ken breaks the promise because of work. During the festive season, father and daughter try hard to re-capture moments of love and concern for each other.

"Listening to various

viewpoints about my work. It is an opportunity to review the work, or even myself.
I think this is one of the important stages of creating works. This experience,
especially it happens in an international film festival,is undoubtedly precious..
Thanks to NAE, I have gained much more imagination and possibility of
filmmaking during the trip. I hope NAE can go on and
benefit more new filmmakers."
