"What's up?" "Siang, why are you still sitting here?" "Go get ready, or we'll be late." " Okay." "Go wash your hands first." "Help me with these." "Hold on, I forgot my cane." "Is everything packed?" "Yes." "It's a long trip; fill up the tank." "I will." "Is that Uncle's truck?" "But he hasn't repaired it yet." "How do you know that?" "It rattles." "Like some screw is loose." "Let's close our eyes... and guess who drives up next." "Okay." "Hello, Auntie." "Siang, you're going to university." "I've brought you a gift." "Thank you, Auntie." " You're welcome." "Thank you!" "Brother, aren't you going too?" "I've got work to do." "I need to look after the younger sister as well." "Of course." "Siang will be on his own in Taipei." "Aren't you worried?" "Unless he tries, we can't know how he'll do." "I can't follow him around forever." "Siang, say goodbye to Dad, Auntie and your sister." "We need to get going." "Okay." " Take care and be careful." "I will." "Let's go." "Thank you, Auntie." " Goodbye." "Bye-bye." " Thank you!" "Bye." "Bye-bye." "Say bye-bye to your brother." "Be a good girl." "Bye-bye, Brother." "Bye-bye" "Goodbye, Brother!" "We're on campus now." "Special offer on drinks." "Buy one get one free." "Thank you." "Hello everyone." "My name is Chang Kai-Siang." "I'm majoring in flute." "I also play guitar and I love rock music." "Hi, I'm Yang Chun-Fang." "I studied music at Wuling High School." "I'm majoring in flute." "Hello, I'm Liu Wen-Wei." "I graduated from Tainan Girls' High School." "I major in vocal performance." "I'm a vocal major." "I sang in the choir at Tsai-Hsing High School." "I've played trumpet for nine years." "But rock music is my passion." "Chang, tell me if you want to form a band." "Don't forget to include him." "Huang Yu-Siang." "Hello, my name is Huang Yu-Siang." "I graduated from" "Taichung Special Education School for the Visually Impaired." "I'm majoring in piano." "Thank you." "Thank you, Siang." "Yang Shin-Ru." "How did you find out?" "He was born prematurely." "I think the problem formed during the pregnancy." "But it didn't show up in any tests." "He was three months old when the doctor told me." "I was so shocked." "Think about it." "What did we know about caring for a blind child?" "It crossed my mind that I should just abandon him at the hospital." "It was like he could read my mind." "He smiled at me." "This is my daughter." "Later I felt like an idiot." "He could walk; he could run." "He could hear and he could speak." "Why would I give up on him?" "Did Siang ever go to public school?" "He went to a public elementary school." "But the kids, well, you know what kids are like." "A little mischievous." "They didn't understand." "So," "I put him in a special school for the blind." "Actually, his enrolling here puts a lot of pressure on the school." "He's our first blind student." "We're worried that he might not fit in here." "He'll fit in." "Just give him some time; give him a chance." "He'll fit in for sure." "Which one is my room?" "Room 301." "This is 311." "Reach up." "A bit higher." "Higher." "301 is at the end of the hall." "Your roommate isn't here yet." "Give me the bag." "This is filthy." "Have a seat." "Sit down for a bit." "I'm going to look for a dishcloth." "Wait." "Sit down for a bit." "Sit down." " Okay, you sit on the edge of the bed." "Okay." "I'm exhausted." "Listen, don't go around giving people massages." "Are you listening to me?" "Those hands are for playing the piano." " Not for doing massage." "I know." "And yet you're still massaging me." "Are you paying attention?" "Yes." "Here." "Here." "That's it." "Tapes and tape recorder." "That's about it." "Anything else you need?" "I don't think so." "Then I'm off to Auntie's." "Okay." "She said she has a stereo for you." "I'll bring it over tomorrow." "You'll be able to listen to music." "Okay." "Are you okay on your own?" "Yes." "See you tomorrow then." "See you tomorrow." "General Education, and you?" "English class." "Are you sure I'm getting two extra sets?" "Good." "I'm a member." "Can you send me those samples?" "Oh, okay, thanks." "You're back." "What did you buy?" "Listen, today's my lucky day." "For the first five callers, an extra $1000 buys a whole two more sets." "So it comes down to only $500 a set!" "You'd never get that in the shops." "Fortunately, I got up early." "Or I'd never have beaten the others to it." "Dad's not at work?" "Is he drinking again?" "He's working night shifts." "In the middle of the night, no one needs to park a car." "So he's either asleep or drunk." "Pretty good life for a parking lot attendant." "Here." "This is for you." "When you drive around on motorcycle, it dries out your skin, right?" "You only need to use a tiny bit and it really works." "Take it." "I don't need it." "Keep it for yourself." "It's OK." "I've got tons." "You have tons?" "How much did you buy?" "Not that many." "How many is "not that many"?" "Eight sets." "You bought eight sets?" "What for?" "Eight sets and you get a discount." "One set is over $2000." "But it's just $8000 for eight!" "Just $8000?" "See?" "You're not earning enough." "But you refuse to look for a new job." "Look here." "$40,000 a month." "I told you I'm not interested." "Good benefits and you can study too." "I want to study." "It's you who's stopping me." "What's the point of studying dance?" "If you want to study, study something that could earn good money and lead to a stable job." "If that excites you so much, you do it." "How many times have I told you?" "You never let it go, do you?" "Are you going out?" " What about this month's..." "I got it." "Every month, the same annoying conversation." "You don't enjoy it either." "But my salary's what it is, and the whole thing goes toward paying your credit card bill." "Will you stop buying all this trash?" "I'm off to work." "More ice?" "Yes, hurry!" "Come again." "Jie, I'll go get more tea." "Work at the counter." "People are waiting." "What can I get for you?" "A passionfruit juice with pearl and coconut jelly." "Okay, one passionfruit juice with pearl and coconut jelly." "How about ice and sugar?" "Make that green tea instead." "Green tea then." "How about ice and sugar?" "Make that a roasted oolong tea." " Oolong tea?" "One glass." "How about ice and sugar?" "A little ice." "A little ice." "How sweet?" "Less sweet, half sweet, slightly sweet, or unsweetened?" "Excuse me." "Thanks." "If you want to borrow an instrument, you have to fill out the form." "You'll need a teacher's signature too." "That's over the top!" "Every day, one classmate will be on duty." "That begins today." "The one on duty sweeps the classrooms and studios, and throws out the garbage." "A classmate suggests that the student on duty should take Siang to class too, walking him from the dorm and taking him to the next class too." "The school has guide paths for the blind." "You've got that cane." "Next time, you can do it on your own." "You should have said something then instead of wasting my time." "Siang, it's okay." "Just listen for now." "I'll teach you later." "Very good." "With more feelings." "There's silk squash, water bamboo... what's this?" "Bitter melon, water spinach, cabbage, and eggplant." "Water spinach and eggplant." "Water spinach." "Turn right." "Let me put it down for you." "I'll get a bowl." "Wait for me." "This is the pork, water spinach, tofu, and eggplant." "I'll put the water spinach and tofu in the bowl." "Who took you to the piano room today?" "A classmate." "Do you need any music from home?" "I'll be fine." "The teacher lent me some CDs." "I want to practice getting to the piano room myself." "It's a huge campus." "Why not wait for the orientation teacher?" "It's okay." "I'll start it simple." "Just from dorm to the piano room." "Did someone say something?" "No, but..." "I don't want to have to rely on others." "I don't want to be a bother." "I wonder when your roommate's coming." "I hope he's nice." "Didn't I wash it clean?" "Sure." "I'm just washing my hands." "12345 678910" "Ten steps, just like earlier." "Ten steps." "Keep going." "12345 67" "On your left." "A tree." "About ten steps per tree." "Four trees in total." "After the fourth tree... walk to the end of the path." "Watch out for that column." "Especially when there's lots of people." "The surface is full of little stones." "Careful or you'll cut yourself." "Your classroom... is on the left just past the eighth column." "The door's right here." " Got it?" "Got it." "Let's do it again." "I'm letting go of your hand but I'm right here." "Try it on your own." "Move away from the edge." "I'm right behind you." "Take it easy." "Don't be afraid." "Morning." "I'm Chu Tze-Ching." "A P.E. major." "I'm Huang Yu-Siang." "What's that?" "A magazine?" "You can see it?" "It has a smell." "You can smell it?" "What's your major?" "Music." "Cool" "Have you joined any clubs?" " Not yet." "Tell you what." "I can play the violin." "You can't smell that, can you?" "I've worked it all out." "I'm going to set up a club." "It'll beat the Guitar Club and the Pop Music Club." "I've got a name for it, too." "It's called "Super Music". "SM" for short." "Sounds wicked, yeah?" "SM?" "Let's "SM" together!" "Hi, Auntie." "I'm Siang's mother." "Your mom's here." "Hello." "You must be Siang's mother." "Yes." "My name is Wang." "I'm the substitute teacher." "Nice to meet you." "Your teacher is on maternity leave." "I'll be taking her place."

"Down here, underpants on the left," "Socks in the middle." "I took out the black socks." "With only white ones, you won't get them mixed up." "Is there anything else you need?" "Think carefully." "If not, I'll go." "I think I'll be fine." "Okay, I'll go then." "It's a short semester." "Just a bit over three months." "Then there's a break." "Sure." "I'm off." "Drive safely." "Don't forget to fill up the tank." "Okay" "Auntie, you're leaving?" "Ching, please look after Siang." "No problem." "I'm sorry if it's any trouble." "Thank you." "I'm off." "Okay." "Bye, Auntie!" "A roasted tea too." "Watch out." "Excuse me." "Jie" "Please take a tea order to Chong-Hua Business Centre." "They finished renovating?" "I saw it last night." "It looks good." "And if you don't mind..." "This is a business." "Don't be such a sourpuss." "Smile." "A bit more." "Okay." "May I help you?" "Jie!" "Long time no see." "What are you doing here?" "Buying some drinks." "And you?" "What're you up to?" "Still dancing?" "No." "I haven't danced for ages." "Anyway, I wasn't any good." " Nonsense." "I'm here because I work here." "And you?" "Are you still dancing?" "Yes, I'm studying dance in university and interning at a dance company." "University... that's great." "Sorry, I've got deliveries." "Call before you come next time."

"You don't know her." "I've met all your friends." "Sure you have." "What's wrong?" "You angry?" "Don't be angry." "Fine." "I gotta go." "Where've you been?" "Sorry I'm late." "I've got some snacks." "They're warm!" "Right." "Left." "Lean on me, it's fine." " On your chest?" "Yep." " Whatever you say." "You bet." "I'm the head of this crew." "Down and up!" "Hi, what's up?"

"In our end-of-term gig, we'll blow them away." "Watch the girls jump at us then!" "What's your type?" " I'd say gentle." "Gentle?" "The most important thing is a nice voice." " A nice voice?" "Yes." "Which sort of voice is that?" " Let's listen out for one." "Listen." "Close your eyes... you should open them." "No, let's both close them." " Any nice voices?" "Wait." " Here are your drinks." "That one's nice." "Nine cups for $135." " She's very pretty." "Hold on... $65 is your change." "Thank you." "She's very pretty, but... her expression's a bit grumpy." "Luckily, you can't see it." "What can I get you?" "A glass of green tea." "Why didn't you answer my calls?" "You didn't answer mine." "I've been busy." "Me too." "You coming this afternoon?" "Why?" "To bring you drinks?" "What's wrong?" "What's this about?" "If you don't love me anymore, just tell me." "I really don't know what I saw in you." "I'll call you later." "Were you fighting?" "You know why you forgave him last time?" "It's not him you like." "It's how he dances." "This way." "Thank you." "That's dangerous!" "Sorry to trouble you." "Where are you going?"

"I'll take you there." "Are you on a delivery?" "How did you know?" "I've heard your voice before." "Do you often come to our campus?" "Hello, Brother Siang." "Siang, join the train and come with us to the music room." " Feel the vibration?" "Yes." "Good." "Let me tell you something." "Most orchestras have a conductor." "Watching him helps everyone play together." "We don't have one." "We need to listen out for each other's breath so we can sing in harmony." "Let's give it a try." "Peonies flower red in spring." "Whose drumming fills the air?" "Listen carefully " "It's thunder you hear there." "Continue." "Plum trees bloom in the winter." "Who's scattering cotton in the sky?" "Look carefully " "It's snowflakes on the fly." "I've got goosebumps." "That's it." "How can you tell if the light is red or green?" "If the cars pass in front, it's red." "If they're coming up the side, it's green." "You can tell by listening?" "Yes, I can." "Is it scary when the traffic's heavy?" "It's okay." "I worry more about bumping into people." "Once I was walking through an arcade." "I accidently bumped into a girl." "She thought I was harassing her." "That was bad." "But I'm trying hard not to rely on others all the time." "I want to know what I'm capable of." "Is there anything you want to do but can't?" "I want to dance." "Dance?" "What's it like?" "When I'm dancing, my heart beats so quickly." "And then, only when I'm dancing" "do I feel that I actually exist." "If that's how you feel, you really should give it a try." "If you don't, how will you ever know what you can do?" "Electricity bill." "Chen Jin-Feng!" "Home run!" "Pay your bill." "Electricity bill, $89." "Yes!" "Hurry." "Home run!" "Home run!" "Pay your electricity bill." "It's $89." "How did you get back today?" "Today... someone from the drink shop took me back." "Boy or girl?" "Girl." "It's always the girls!" "What does she look like?" "Is it the pretty one?" "How would I know?" "The one with huge breasts?" "I didn't touch them." "How would I know?" "Oh, man." "Tell me more." "Which one?" "That one with the nice voice." "Voice... you always talk about voice, but I still don't get it." "And then?" " She has a nice scent." "A nice scent?" "That's so wrong!" "You smelled her scent?" "You're killing me." "It wasn't like that!" "Nice scent." "What else?" "She's not very happy." "You know how she's feeling?" "Kill me now." "Not very happy." "You interested in her?" "You need to ask?" "She smells good and she's unhappy." "Sounds like I could give her some comfort." "Can I ask you something?" "What's dancing like?" "Dancing?" "There's lots of different types." "I like Michael Jackson's style best." "You know Michael Jackson?" "He was so cool!" "His moonwalk was like this." "There's another one that's really weird." "Your head's on the floor and your legs spin in the air, like in Streetfighter." "Have you seen it?" "Of course you haven't." "Think of an electric fan lying on the floor with its blades spinning." "I'm not sure." "You can't picture it." "Like the spinning blades of a fan." "I don't know." "What are you doing here?" "Aren't I allowed?" "I've done introductory ballet." "Haven't you ever noticed how willowy my body is?" "Let's go." "You're very pretty when you smile." "You should smile more." "It's been a while." "Hello, everyone." "Hello, Miss." "Welcome to our "new experience" class." "What will we experience today?" "Our bodies." "The beauty of our bodies." "We'll also experience the joy of becoming a dancer." "Now, I want you to imagine that you're standing on stage." "Alone." "All by yourself." "However nervous you are, you need to put on a brave face." "Chins up." "Watch your fingertips." "Return." "Very good." "Relax." "Calm your mind." "Watch me." "Stretch out your fingers." "Grow taller." "Very good." "Shoulders relaxed, stretch your arms." "You've studied before?" "A little, in the past." "Your head follows your arms" "From your chest and rise... to embrace the sky." "Feel how you own the sky." "Keep stretching." "Slowly turn your head." "Slowly let your arms down." "Lift up your chin." "Look into the distance." "Look into your dreams." "Faster!" "More movement!" "Faster!" "I printed the registration forms." "Remember to send it before the end of the month." "What's this?" "The registration form for the audition." "But I'm not..." "Sorry, I thought you were in the class." "You're all joining in?" "Yes, though the audition's not in Taiwan." "Still, it's an amazing opportunity." "You've been dancing for ages." "I've only been training for two months." "But I really want to give it a try." "Take it." "If you're interested, you can take a look." "Thank you." "I'm off." "I'll go too." "What's that?" "Nothing." "International audition." "Are you going to try out for the audition?" "Have you danced before?" "Of course." "That's how life is." "When opportunity knocks, grab it; otherwise," "it's gone forever." "You've got the gift." "What're you doing in a drink shop?" "Go for it." "I'll lend you money if you need it." "Oh, but..." "If you're late for work tomorrow," "I'll dock your pay." "Bye-bye." "Where are the others?" "Not here yet." "Not here yet." "What's Shian's number?" "0922 -0922" "461 -461" "726 -726" "Where are you?" "Right behind you." "Then why'd you answer the phone?" "What are you wearing?" "You know nothing!" "What's with the touching?" "What color is it?" "Silver." "You know, like an UFO." "Lit up and silver." "What else is silver?" "Let me think." " Pots." "Pots." "And cod..." "Cod?" "!" "I'm all professional and you say I look like a fish?" "I don't know what to say." "I'm speechless." "To see its muscles you have to cut open the stomach." "That exposes the internal organs." "I got it!" "We've got a 20-min slot in the show, right?" "Let's do something different." "How different?" "Siang-Boy." "Guys." "Guys." "Can you quiet down?" "Exorcism is a serious business." "The four of us need quiet." "You..." "How do you get four?" "There's only three of you." "There's four." "One." "Two." " Three..." "It's ok." "Cut it out." "You five are so weird." "Ching, we need a place of our own." "This isn't working." "Siang." "Over here." "Everyone, come here." "Hands!" "In our 20-min show, we'll shake the gods..." "Wrong." "We'll make the gods." "Wrong." "You mean shake the world and make the gods weep?" "That's the one!" "1,2,3." "SM!" "Like breath, your body is an endless flow." "The body is so delightful, don't rush it through." "It's like an invisible dance partner, dancing with you." "Very good." "Let your body melt away..." "Sorry, I'll get yours in a second." "Imagine a butterfly perched on your hand." "It's still flying." "That's it." "Follow the voice." "Come slowly forward" "as if you had wings." "Perhaps I've been flying after others." "This time," "I'll fly my own way for once." "You're getting better." "Keep practicing at home." "Bing Lun, the competition deadline is close." "You should get Siang's details from him." "We already put in our application." "And we started rehearsing." "Great." "Keep at it." "Siang can join in later." "We actually found another pianist." " You found someone else?" "Yes." "Siang's been rehearsing with you for ages." "What's he going to do?" "Don't worry about me, Ms. Wang." "Our club has a gig that day too." "There's a conflict." "I'll find you other students to play with." "Pianists like you are definitely in demand." "Ms. Wang, it's really fine." "I really don't care about the competition." "Siang." "Bye, Ms Wang." "This is an excellent opportunity for you." "In your student years, this sort of accomplishment will give you a huge boost in the future." "You need to take every opportunity to let people see you." "If I'm not in the competition, will people not be able to see me?" "It's just because he's blind that he came in first." "It's just because he's blind." "Siang," "are you looking for the classroom?" "No." "Come over." "Wait here." "Siang." "What are you doing?" "Isn't this the way in?" " I opened the door!" "Ah, the door." "Careful." "I can't believe that you climbed the wall!" "Look at this!" "This..." "Hold on." "It's so dirty." " Wait a sec." "Sorry." "Siang." "Have you ever thought..." "If one day, if... you could see... what would you like to do?" "I have." "If I could see," "I'd go find the toilet on my own." "No, not really, though it's true, we need luck for that." "Sorry, I'm just blabbing." "The truth is, if I could see," "I'd like to be able to go out on my own" "and not bump into things." "Maybe I'd find a cafe." "Sit by the window." "Just ordinary stuff." "Nothing so special." "Because that way no one would stare at me." "Have you done all you wanted to do?" "I suppose so." "I'm preparing to audition for a dance troupe." "I don't know if I'll succeed." "What kind of dance?" "Is it the type where you keep spinning?" "We'll stretch first." "Stretch." "Empty your mind." "Then, you feel like you're about to fly." "Stretch as far as you can." "Then take a big step with your left foot." "You look like a plane." "Stretch your arms this way." "Like you saw me doing just then." "Stretch. 1, 2, 3." "We like this." "Don't move your body." "Face the same side." "Just your arm." "Yes, this way." "Spin around." "Yes!" "That's great." "Do it again." "We're crossing the river." "It's much flatter here." "Right, that's it for the hill." "The village chief's house is on the left." "On the left?" " There's a dog, right?" "Yes, there is." "And right after that is the grocery store." "Hello, Granny." "Siang, you're back." "Yes, I'm back." "Watch out for the bike." "This house has so many flowers." " This is my home." "Really?" "Siang is back!" " I'm home." "Mom, Siang is back!" "Great." "Brother!" "Siang." "Mom, I'm home." "Let me look at you." "You look great." "I've cooked all your favorite dishes." "We'll eat soon." "Hello Auntie." "You must be Jie." "Siang often mentions you on the phone." "You're most welcome." "Thank you." " Have a seat." "Okay." "Make yourself at home." "Two more dishes and lunch will be ready." "Great, thank you, Auntie." "I'll leave Jie to you." "Show her around." " Have a seat." "Thank you." "Are you my brother's girlfriend?" "Don't be silly." "Siang heard you." "I'll sit here." "Siang." "I cooked your favorite pork stew." "And bamboo shoots." "You want some too, don't you?" "I'll get the fat ones." "Here you are." "Let's do it ogether." "Auntie." "Those were recorded by Siang." "Here's a duvet and pillow." "Thank you." "From childhood, whether it's cars, trains, rain, or typhoons he's recorded it all." "He recorded them all himself?" "Yes." "He carried a recorder everywhere and recorded everything." "See?" "He was such a cute baby." "So plump." "Yes." "Look at this... he was so naughty." "He'd bang on whatever he got a hold of." "He'd make so much noise." "Our family says" "Siang is my lucky charm." "They were so impressed by him." "A big piano with all those keys, and yet this kid could play any song you like." "What's this?" "This one..." "As a kid, there wasn't much he could do." "He'd hang around, sitting in his room by himself." "Then he started learning piano." "That made him happier than anything." "It was also the only thing he did better than anyone else." "In every competition he entered, he'd come number one or two." "But... after this one, he refused to compete." "Why?" "At the backstage, he heard one of the other kids say that he only won because he was blind, that the judges just felt sorry for him." "It's the thing he enjoys most and is most confident about." "Are you my brother's girlfriend?" "No." "Go to sleep." "Are you really not his girlfriend?" "I'm tired." "Go to sleep." "Go to sleep." "Your parents start work so early." "Six every morning." "What are these yellow flowers?" "They're oncidium." "Take a look." "This is a bottle seedling." "This is the young plant." "Mom says they're also called" ""dancing girls"." "See the petals?" "Tutus." "And here's the head and hands." "So cute!" "Step downwards." "Take it slow." "Slide." "I've got you." "Left foot first." "Yes, left foot down." "You scared?" " I'm good." "No problem?" "This way's clear." "It's all flat now." "Siang, I'm right in front of you." "You can take bigger steps." "Come on." "What do you think I'm like?" "I don't know." "What do you think I look like?"
