The Tide
At some point in life an age-old question will inevitably crop up: Do we swim against the tide or go with the flow?
The band, Against the Tide, was doomed before it even started.
A year later, the songwriter is selling his soul to catchy pop tunes and commercial music, hitching his wagon to else’s grand schemes while being hitched by a young music devotee; the bassist is venturing north across the border; the drummer is working as an insurance agent and all set for fatherhood. Before the factory building is demolished for a lucrative redevelopment scheme, the band members, bar one, return to their studio to clear out the place, contemplating making a final appearance for a farewell gig. The reunion takes place, albeit obliquely, each member putting their best foot forward to steer their own course.
逆流當前,你想順流而下還是逆流而上呢?
Against The Tide,一個還未發表卻已經胎死腹中的樂團。
被逼遷的那一天,團友一起回到了當初的樂房收拾著彼此的回憶。縱然熱情還在,但現實的殘酷讓他們無法再繼續大家共同的夢想。
生活的沖擊、人與人之間的複雜關係,讓他們一直以來的堅持看起來或許也只是一場空。
