作品特色
本劇以比對作為手段，透過零碎的回憶片段、虛實交錯的幻象、夢境、環境聲音、中西經典的引用及詩句等，筆者試圖以此組合建構出母女兩人百無聊
賴的日常及壓抑的情感矛盾，並以小見大，描繪港邊居民日常生活的景象。
劇情大綱 Synopsis
初出社會的張瑀在臺北過著百無聊賴的生活，日復一日。她開始在每個角落聞到失蹤多年的父親揮之不去的氣息、瞥見熟悉的身影，激起了過去對家庭疏離、交惡的記憶，成長過程中內裡的漂泊游離。在現實生活中成就不了夢想的她回到漁村，終日漫無目的而惶惶度日，索然無味地嚼食每一日。失夫多年的母親居住在港邊的小屋，日夜期盼著父親的歸來，再也沒有離去。 沉迷於宗教活動的她開始在夜晚重複著相同的怪夢，更讓她堅信丈夫並未死去。母親發現自己開始能夠在夢中登上失蹤的船隻，找尋父親成謎的蹤跡，卻也發現自己開始無法在每一個漫漫長夜中，安穩地入眠。張瑀困頓於過往，魂牽夢縈；母親殷切期盼，每個睜開眼的明天。春來秋去，只是港邊依舊。

創作緣由
等待是百無聊賴的，等待是延綿不絕的，等待是徒勞無功的，等待是遙遙無期的，但就是等待的種類，也應有盡有。並非所有的等待都是荒廢而無意義的，正因为他是如此地百無聊賴，卻又因此而绵密、而細緻動容。以港邊作為背景和靜默的日常生活寫照、对破碎家庭的关照，筆者試圖用創作來回顧、自省自身的經驗和日常观察所思，並試圖用不同的風格與方式書寫關於家庭與當代青年游移與認同的故事。
This story is setting at a fishing port, which gathers wanderers, travellers, fishermen, and outsiders who travel around all the time. Though the world is not a reflective glass surface, everyone we meet is simply a mirror who reflects ourselves and I do believe that everything and everyone is relatively connected in some way to each other. We are original and different but yet we do share something in a spiritual way. Being so-called
the “lost generation”, I set up the background and wrote this story with my daily observations and my own experiences and I regarded this writing as a self-reflection. Every seemingly mundane in our life can be interesting and worthwhile for us to look into it cause they might bear different emotions and stories behind it. Everyone is struggled with the fast-paced world and I thought gazing the mundane of others and ours could be a way of healing and examine ourselves.
