About

A middle-aged man who had emigrated many years ago and now is returning to Taiwan to help deal with the funeral affairs of a friend with whom he has not had contact for many years. But he is encountering many difficulties because he is not a relative and can not sign legal documents. This trip is a journey back to his hometown and about nostalgia; it is also an atonement for a late farewell.
