When traveling to Taiwan, I didn't think too much to pick this movie, just by its name. It is so different from my guess; yet I wouldn't watch if I knew the key topics the movie are about, as I thought those issues in hidden corners of everyday's life and in society will never be "solved". This movie wouldn't "solve" them either, but it did give me and other audience many better ways to look at it again. The movie has many "sad-laughters"; when life is at times ridiculous, those "unlucky" ones, as connected in the plot, just formed a beautiful sad yet full of life reflections. Don't want to spoil anyone not yet watch it. So, didn't write specific here.

Taiwan's courage to touch on a tough real-life cruelness
Warm and positive film from Taiwan
Enjoyed the film from beginning to end. Made again to realize, how simple life really is. Some funny situations, some sadness, lot of heartiness and positive feelings.
