Huang Xiuping is a new force in Hong Kong films, at the awards ceremony of the 2014 Hong Kong Film Awards, his "Crazy Dance Faction" won three awards for best newcomer, new director and best original film song, the light is very dazzling, and the subsequent launch of this "Which Day We Will Fly" transforms the vision from the wild dance of youth into a remembrance of the times, with a trickle of stream-like atmosphere, interpreting a generation of Hong Kong people relaxed, happy, and there is no lack of hesitation and miss of the youth past, with a more meticulous pen, more fresh style, It brought a different youth experience to mainland audiences.

The success of "Crazy Dance Faction" comes from the combination of dance and kung fu, with a powerful audio-visual effect, showing the blood of the current young generation, "Which Day We Will Fly" is completely different, this movie is a middle-aged man's retrospective of youth, and the middle-aged Yu Fengzhi, played by Yang Qianwei, occasionally found the blog of his friend Su Bowen in middle school on the Internet, thus ditching the memory of the past. The design of the plot suspense is somewhat similar to Shunji Iwai's "Love Letter", and the audiovisual style is also extremely beautiful, and the aesthetic picture is interpreted like a dream.

The film not only writes about the youth of several protagonists, but also expresses nostalgia for the good times in Hong Kong through the way of reliving old dreams. Su Bowen made mechanical airplanes, paper airplanes flying in the classroom, loaded with the fantasies and expectations of youth, but also metaphorically Hong Kong in the nineties of the vitality and upward spirit, the teacher by letting students fill out the ideal planning book, let everyone tell their dreams, these teenage boys and girls, some people want to immigrate, some people want to learn English to become a corporate elite, basically represent the voice of a generation, such as today, this generation has become the mainstay of Hong Kong society, I believe that when they see the positive and upward attitude revealed in this film, they will also have a deep feeling.

In fact, not only Hong Kong, that generation of mainlanders also had similar life planning, which is determined by the overall economic situation environment, when the brisk youth and the heavy reality are combined, the film rarely associates the individual with the whole, forming a youth group portrait with the significance of the era.

Youth films are inseparable from the elements of the times, "Which Day We Will Fly" in the use of nostalgic elements, there are unique characteristics of Hong Kong films, the school filming place is Renhua College, standing on the campus can look up at the Lion Rock, and the Rose Garden Project also has a clever integration, are the symbols of the Spirit of Hong Kong, in addition, through the campus song to the whole four kings of heaven, but also added a little bit of Hong Kong pop culture unique pride.

Su Bowen in the film, with a symbolic role, he represents the Hong Kong people's courage to dream, uncompromising, self-realization in rebellion, his dream of flying, his irrational persistence, is exactly a dream that everyone yearns for, but cannot achieve. For Yu Fengzhi and Peng Shenghua after adulthood, that "threesome" past is a happy time outside of reality.

Inspired by Tam Wing Lin's classic Cantonese song "The Root of Love", the film speaks for itself that youth is the root of the Hong Kong spirit. Su Bowen, Peng Shenghua and Yu Fengzhi connected the youth and mature years of Hong Kong, everyone once had the freedom to imagine the future and plan ideals without restraint, but when the future really came, they got the future, but they lost their youth forever.

In recent years, Chinese-language youth films have this characteristic, the mainland's "To Youth", Taiwan's "Those Years" and "Girls' Generation", are not only a youth souvenir of one person or several people, but also a collective memory of a generation, "Which Day We Will Fly" is the same.
