Different Paths (殊途)
"In most people's minds, college is beautiful. As new college students who have just entered college, we really feel that college life is not as beautiful as we imagined before. You can walk your own journey in life. So, what do you want to do? Have you lived your life like this?”
The director uses hand-held video and dubbing to express the reality and confusion of contemporary college students in the form of oral records. At the same time, he encourages the audience to embrace the freedom brought by college life, use this gap to listen to their own voices, and try to find their own path.
