For more than a decade now, typhoons have caused repeated havoc year after year-people buried in mudslides, levees undercut by flood waters, riverside hotels toppled, roads washed out, bridges swept away, low-lying coastal areas inundated as far as the eye can see .... One can't help sighing just like the archivist in the movie, and ask: Why doesn't Taiwan save itself?
場景轉換到台灣，從 2009 年的莫拉克回頭看，十多年來，颱風災情年復一年重複搬演──土石流活埋民眾、洪水掏空堤防、河岸旅館倒塌、道路坍方、橋樑沖毀、沿海低窪地區一片汪洋… …，不禁令人發出同樣的嘆息：台灣為何救不了自己？
