Just like stepping into the turning points of other people’s lives, you walk through the night, venturing into the unknown and encountering the unexpected until you find yourself becoming part of the stroy.

A baku is an animal that feeds on dreams. So who is the baku in the story? Is it the actor who chases his dream? The crew who accepts reality? The people who mingle in the night in Shekou? Or is it…Shenzhen? 

Tales of Consumed Dreams is part of a series called Tales of Shekou. Based on local culture and created in a real space environment, the actions developed by the actors and the participants link up issues and thoughts about the local society.
