Through capturing imagery of floating lights on street after midnight when the busy city was calming down, this video animation aspires to evoke a nostalgic sensibility for Macao, a tranquil peninsula in southern China near Hong Kong. As a reflection and questioning to the prosperous economic development in a city well-known for tourism industry, this work provokes the audiences into the search of the deeper meaning of life and happiness.
