导演阐述Director’s Statement

 

莎士比亚曾经说过“爱的力量是和平，从不顾理性，成规和荣辱，它使一切恐惧，震惊和痛苦在身受时化作甜蜜.”《甜蜜十八岁》想表达的就是，对爱更多一份的理解使你成为了更成熟的你。

 

Shakespeare wrote that the power of love is peace—that love doesn’t care about reason, norms or pride. With love, fear, shock and pain all become sweet. Sweet Eighteentries to express that you can become a more mature person when you have an understanding of love.
