Recent redevelopment plans have turned the spotlight on To Kwa Wan, a seaside neighbourhood. With To Kwa Wan residents sitting on the same boat, will these memories sink into oblivion? Will they, and how long will they remain and shine?
Acting as boats, the locals there are carriers of local memories. Perhaps the key to make stories long lasting is to be transparent, so that more light can travel through and let the memories shine. Garages. Dirty ground. These may not manage to leave a pleasant impression to those from other inner-city areas. Nonetheless, under the superficial surface could be memories that resonate with other groups of people. Here is the problem: What memories will they resonate with? It is similar to the inconsistent transparency of butter paper; one should always be selective and tailor-make stories for different people.
鎂光燈聚焦在土瓜灣近年的重建計劃之上，與居民坐在同一艘小艇之上，這個社區的光與影日漸退色，餘暉仍能殘存多久？
讓光線照進社區內，也許就是令故事長存的關鍵。縱使這裏的車房或骯髒的大街未必能留下好印象，卻會使人產生共鳴 ，那個故事能最能夠觸動你？每個人心中也有不同的答案。
