The three short stories about death
男子:你好? Man: Hello?
男子:你到底是誰? Man: Who are you?
老鼠:我是老鼠先生,我來這裡要跟你說一個故事。 Mouse: I'm Mr. Mouse. I'm coming for telling you a story.
從前從前,有一個小男孩被關在一個陰冷潮濕的監獄裡。 Long time ago, there was a little boy who was in a gloomy and cold prison.
幾乎沒人聽過他說話,大家都以為他是一個啞巴。 No one had ever heard him speaking, and everyone thought he was a dump.
The actor healed one part of himself by acting as his dead older brother. The performance style was mixed with puppet show and monologue, for a fairy-tale atmosphere I used the light sources from candles and torches that well enhanced the expression of the story with dramatic effects.
