A girl loses her mind on the road to realize her dream. Until one night, her inner mind comes to wake her up and reminds her what her original aspiration is.

My purpose for making this film is tell the audience everyone should run their own race. Don't envy them or mock them. You may not be the best, but being ordinary is also a great thing. Don't be confused by fame and fortune. Life is about waiting for the right moment to act. There’s no-one else in the world that is you. Be the best version of you rather than trying to be someone else.

The process of creating the story was full of complications, I hope I can deliver the message of this film to audience correctly. So I put lots of elements in there, the beginning story design was at least five minutes. But it's going to be difficult to complete the whole work by myself. So I refined the story again and again, condensed the 5 minutes story into just 3:30. Although I lost some elements I liked, I'm glad to have a more refined story which can still deliver the message I want.
