Homeland Night
Synopsis
The play “Homeland Night” depicts National Day from the perspective of a journalist traveling in a taxi and engaging in dialogue with the driver. The dialogue reveals that homeland is not merely land and flag, but rather a profound sentiment that resides in the heart and conscience of humanity. The play, in a metaphorical manner, exposes the discrepancy between the ideal of homeland and the reality of everyday life.
