Although I don't want to admit it, the film released in 2015, called ten years, talks about what will happen to Hong Kong in 2025 with a drama film structure.
In 10 Years, protests, departures, and cultural and linguistic shifts have been foretold. However, a lot has been happening in recent years.

Weed of fire talks about the first baseball club, which started in Hong Kong. It is a very touching movie.
The movie uses the character voiceover to express the introverted emotions of the protagonist. As I grew up in Hong Kong, Hong Kong people are relatively introverted, they are not good at saying their things, and they will receive their voices to the deepest.
(Reference from Weed of fire)
Because of what has happened in Hong Kong in recent years, the introverted Hong Kong people have done the same thing that is impossible to do. However, that has not been successful. As the events gradually end and the changes in social policies, Hong Kong people are already unfamiliar with Hong Kong.
What comes from strangeness is unnaturalness. Even in the present, it is like being in a foreign land. This foreigner reminds me of Camus and the existentialism he expresses.

These are the feelings brought out by the book when reading The Stranger. However, the protagonist of The Stranger, Mosuo, is also a silent person, not because of his silence. Still, because he feels that everything in the world has nothing to do with him,(Camus & Associés, 2020) the world doesn't deserve to talk to him. He only cares about what he watches.
Of course, Mosuo thinks nothing about everything and decides that everything is nihilistic and meaningless, and escaping may be the best way.
In this book of Stranger, Mosuo's story is told, and existentialism is said in a literary way,(Hayden, 2013) making it convenient for me to shape the protagonist of my FMP in my heart. From Mosuo to tell the character of today's Hong Kong people, that is to say.
