Xiao Erdong dreams of becoming a marathon runner like his late mother. Although his father – taxi driver, Xiao Daming – isn’t keen on the idea at first, the single parent decides to help the boy realise his dream upon learning that the young man is losing his sight. Chiu elaborated: “In an Oriental family, emotions such as love is very subtle; we are less expressive. And the love of a father is always forgotten.
As to why he picked the theme of marathon as the foundation of the father-son story, Chiu said: “To me life is like a marathon.“And when you start you are full of energy, but along the way obviously you want to give up. But you just have to believe in yourself and keep going, and keep trying to make it happen and everything will go through if you don’t give up.”
