THE LIGHT WE REMEMBER

Department of Digital Media Design, Ming Chuan University

On a thunderstormy night, a girl dreams she becomes a sheep, entering an amusement park with her rabbit and tiger dolls to flee a monster. She mends the broken bridge with a glowing orb, reviving her childhood and family memories, realizing the dolls symbolize her parents’ love and protection. After the monster fades, she wakes to dawn, regaining love and courage. In this story, the rabbit character incorporates the compassion and great love found in the Burmese Jataka tales, while the tiger in Malaysian culture symbolizes a father’s protection. Many scenes also integrate distinctive design elements from both countries. Overall, the story aims to express themes of “self-awakening, understanding, and healing,” while promoting cultural heritage, cross-cultural understanding, and the creative dissemination of multiculturalism.
