In the past, Taiwan audiences thought of documentaries as black-and-white films on serious, depressing, sleep-inducing subjects. They felt that the films didn't make any money, because they were aimed at a miniscule market segment, so directors didn't waste their time on publicity.
過去，紀錄片對於台灣觀眾而言，印象可能停留在黑白片與嚴肅沈悶題材，看著看著就會打瞌睡，屬於不可能賺錢的小眾市場，導演也不必費心去做宣傳。
