简介：初中毕业后，因家境不许，15岁的农村少年阿远（王晶文）放弃学业来台北做事，初尝人生的辛苦，却仍为自己的理想努力着。一年后，阿远青梅竹马的恋人阿云（辛树芬）也来到台北，了解到现实的台北同阿远信里所描述的，是两个世界。可是困顿的环境并没减少他们的快乐，因为他们拥有彼此。　　阿远服兵役时，因为有每日抵达的书信，孤身在台北的阿云起初并没感到有多孤独。然而日子久了，遥远恋人的纸上诉情总比不过现实生活中鲜活男孩的低声耳语，加上对未来怀有的恐慌，阿云在阿远退伍前选择了嫁作他人妇。伤心虽有，阿远也只能选择抑压。

简介：普通人的命运在轰轰烈烈的时代面前总是渺小到可以忽略不计。个人，如果勇敢地站出来想阻止时代洪流，多少像奋力扑向风车的唐吉坷德，往往只能当殉道者，而更多时候，个人甚至连选择当旁观者的权利也没有。可是普通人的悲剧，无疑能照出历史的荒谬与残忍。1945年日本无条件投降后台湾光复，基隆一户林姓人家眼见也要过上好日子，但人算不如天算，林家大小波折从此不断。“二•二八”事件发生后，家中的四兄弟更是只剩下老老实实开有一家照相馆的聋哑人老四林文清（梁朝伟）。然而悲剧并没到此终止，因为和进步人士有联系，林文清也没能逃脱被逮捕的命运，到此，林家男子只剩林文清和吴宽美（辛树芬）的幼儿——他尚呆在襁褓中咿呀咿呀地学语。©豆瓣
