An overcast, wide shot shows a Taiwanese businessman and Burmese worker stood by a newly constructed aquaculture pond.

A precarious future.

With 20 years of experience in shrimp farming in Taiwan, Du came to Myanmar alone. Even though he saw only endless wilderness before him, he still believed, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going,” nothing is impossible on this earth. He did not expect what followed were white powders and guns.

A Burmese-Chinese girl, Sue, who had the same dream for shrimp farming, decided to settle down in the shrimp farm his father had started to develop 20 years ago, after the marriage to her Burmese husband, Jojo. She was determined to carry out the unfulfilled ambition of her father. Struggling to confront the false accusation, Du encountered Sue by chance. Together, they decided to farm and rear shrimps in the wilderness and build their “Diamond Marine World.”

It took five years to shoot and produce this film, recording the turns of humanity and the conflicts falling one after another as the rain in Myanmar.
