即使惡水沖毀了家園，只要抓緊繩子，生命就有希望！他們在拔一條河，拔這條現實與未來的巨河。2009年8月8日，一場無情的風災摧殘了這個山中小鎮，高雄縣甲仙鄉，這個以芭樂、芋

　　2009年8月8日，无情风灾摧残了高雄县甲仙乡这个山中小镇，放眼望去只剩一片死寂。但甲仙国小的一群孩子，在缺乏拔河鞋和专用拔河道的匮乏环境中，努力为家乡争取最高荣誉，试图唤回被风灾摧折后的信心与勇气。这群拔河小将不畏艰难的精神，深深鼓舞因环境受创而信心全无的大人们，他们努力奋起，不向逆境屈服。

　　这裡也住著一群不受台湾社会重视的新移民妈妈们，被婚姻仲介说服来台湾就可以过上舒适生活，满心期盼地嫁过来。现实却不从人愿，有人要亲自下田负担农作，有人要到工厂当女工，有人甚至要一肩扛起全家的生计。但为维护家庭，她们不轻易说苦，也从不捨得离开台湾。风灾过后，这群妈妈们透过美味异国菜餚及亮丽歌声，为甲仙注入一股全新活力。

Having spent over a year in the town of Jiasian in Kaohsiung to shoot this documentary, Golden Horse award-winning director Yang Li Chou (The Long Goodbye, Young at Heart) puts together an inspirational post-catastrophe documentary with Bridge Over Troubled Water. Capturing the emotional journey of children through a national tug-of-war tournament and the hard lives of foreign brides in the region, the documentary tells of the determination and bravery shown by the survivors of a calamitous typhoon that struck Taiwan in 2009. A group of young children volunteer to take part in a nationwide competition in order to restore hope in their town, while a large number of foreign mothers in the area hope to revive the land that they love through exotic cuisine.
