This collection of films connects the work of ten directors and nine themes but all concern the occupation of the Taiwan parliament by student activists in March 2014. They were protesting the passing of the Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement (CSSTA) by the Koumintang ruling party without sufficient review. After 24 days of occupation what did they change, and how were they changed by it?
本片藉由十個導演串起九個不同的主題,紀錄青年世代為何在2014年的三月佔領台灣的議會。在24天中,這些青年如何被改變?24天之後,他們又改變了什麼?
