The film is adapted from the collection of novels "Bowling Lanes on the Taber River". It tells four short stories that took place in different cities and is linked by a film director who seeks inspiration from all over the world.
Several stories happened in different cities and even different countries. So the film is to think about a question about human beings. There is no concatenation between the stories, leaving a blank. Just like facing the clouds, allowing their thoughts to fly, the audience can think more freely when facing the blank space between stories. This is a topic about person-to-person communication. The language becomes silence among the lovers, and the gaze builds a bridge between strangers. People who love each other are torturing each other, and are separated from each other, unable to communicate. The characters in the film are lonely.
