  There was once a young girl who felt alienated from everyone. One day, she befriends a boy as lonely as she is, and they run away to a beautiful world that belongs only to them. Both imaginatively escapist and heartbreakingly realistic, their journey speaks to kids and adults alike with the pain of solitude, the sorrow of loss and the warmth of hope. Based on Jimmy Liao's book, WINDS OF SEPTEMBER director Tom Lin's   fanciful film paints in vivid strokes the fears and fantasies of childhood. Just like the heroine, audiences won't forget that summer back when, and its brightest, loneliest STARRY STARRY NIGHT.

  Seediq was a tribe that worshipped the rainbow in the Taiwan mountains.  They lived in a balance with the ecology in a paradise in the hills.  A hero came from the tribe's Mahebo Community, Mona Budao, son of the Mahebo Community's chief.  He returned from his first hunt with the head of another tribe, since then everyone in the tribe knew his name.  However good times did not last.  With the arrival of the Japanese colonial era, the Seediq tribe was forced to change from their original way of life.  Most of the tribe's men became slave labor while women became servants.  Seeing their home and hunting ground that their  ancestors worked hard to build gradually vanished under Japanese rule, Mona Rudao's heart ached and deeply believed in the ancestor's disciplines.  He could only on his own hunting ground pass through a variety of tests to earn the proud tattoo on his face and become a real Seediq.  Only after death would he be able to walk on the rainbow bridge that his ancestors recognized.

  Youth is a rain storm.  Even after catching the flu, you still look back and want to be in it again.

  All of Ko Tung's friends, for Shen Chia-Yi who they all like, go to the same high school from the same junior high and continue to never ending romantic battles.

  One day Ko Tung's excessive prank gets him in trouble with his teacher.  He sits in front of good student Shen Chia-Yi as she keeps an eye on him.  At first they are resistant of each other, but Ko Tung gradually  likes Shen Chia-Yi who forces him to study hard.  His different values also deeply affects Shen Chia-Yi.  Ko Tung begins his pursuit while Shen Chia-Yi remains hesitant.

  After high school graduation, Ko Tung and Shen Chia-Yi who would soon be together originally get into a fight over Ko Tung's free style fighting match and regrettably cannot become lovers.

  Watching the girl who they have been after for years entering the chapel and becoming someone else's bride, each boy gains their own growth and continues to pursue their own fortunes.
