Mike Binder has always wanted to write a story about friendship. When people encounter difficulties, they need a friend around them to help themselves out of the trough. And the central idea of the film is'communication'-two men walk together and start chatting. On September 11, 2001, when the tragedy happened in New York, Mike Binder happened to be in New York. On that day, he witnessed many people on the street with panic and helpless faces. He could never forget these people. One and a half years after the 9/11 incident, Mike and his wife, who moved back to New York to settle down, came to the old place, trying to encounter some sorrowful faces that he could not forget, and to see what has changed in their lives over the past year. Thus, the prototype of this script was born. He reintegrated the experience of that day, what he saw and thought, and turned it into the true meaning behind the film
