On Christmas Eve, a girl stands in front of her bedroom window, watching children from the choir come and go. In a window across the street, a boy plays the flute, echoing the choir’s songs.
平安夜里，一位少女站在卧室的窗前，看着唱诗班的孩子来来回回。在街对面的一扇窗户里，一位少年吹着长笛，附和着唱诗班的歌声。

From there, the story of Starry Starry Night begins.
《星空》的故事就从那里开始了。

Adapted from well-known Taiwanese illustrator Jimmy Liao’s picture book of the same title, it tells of Mei (Xu Jiao), a 13-year-old girl’s beauty and inner pain, through her adventures.
影片改编自台湾著名漫画家几米•廖的同名绘本，讲述的是13岁的少女小美（徐娇饰）在自己的历险旅行中表现出那份美丽与内心的痛苦。

Mei is an only child whose stable, middle-class family life is torn apart as her parents careen toward divorce. Luckily she has a doting grandfather who fuels her unwieldy dreams.
小美是位出生于稳定中产家庭的独生女，而随着父母婚姻濒临破碎，她的生活也变得四分五裂。庆幸的是她还有宠爱着她的爷爷，支持着她那不太现实的美梦。

When grandpa falls ill, all seems lost for Mei – only for a new boy at school, Jay (Eric Lin), to capture her attention. Soon enough the two lonely souls find one another and, looking for a way to escape their real-world troubles, embark on a fantasy-fuelled journey.
爷爷病倒后，小美似乎失去了一切。只有学校里转校生小杰（林晖闵饰）的到来引起了她的关注。很快，这两个孤独的灵魂找到彼此，并试图寻找逃离现实世界烦恼的方法，从踏上了一次幻想之旅。

What director Tom Lin has done great here is balancing the real and the fantastical, with beautifully made computer-generated effects that whisk audiences away on adventures of childish innocence and imagination.

He also grounds the drama in a recognizable reality. Mei is forced to deal with the loss of her grandpa as well as her parents’ divorce. Meanwhile Jay struggles to fit in with the other boys at school, and he isn’t up for the physical challenge of being bullied.
他同时也将剧情设置在一个可辨的现实之中。小美不得不同时面对爷爷去世和父母离婚这两个现实。小杰也努力试图在学校同其他男生打成一片，而当被人欺负时，他还没做好打架的准备。

With each other, however, Mei and Jay find peace and happiness.

Starry Starry Night is as much about children coping with family issues, as it is a coming-of-age story for its young protagonists.
《星空》在讲述孩子们如何应对家庭问题的同时，还是一个讲述小主人公长大成人的故事。

Mei and Jay are both 13 and there is a fierce hormonal undercurrent also at work here. The summer will not only bring heartache and adventure for these young adolescents, but also their first taste of love.
小美和小杰都是13岁的年纪，男女之间的强烈的两性相吸的情感也在他们之间暗流涌动。那个夏天带给这些少年的不只是悲伤和冒险，还有爱的初体验。

The film comes with a touching epilogue that at first feels unnecessary, but completely sells itself in the film’s final moments. It punctuates the film perfectly and ensures audiences leave with a warm fuzzy feeling burning inside of them.
影片以感人结尾收场。起先这个结尾会让人感到有些多余，但在全片最后时刻它却成功俘虏了观众的心。它给这部电影画上了完美的句点，并让观众离席时内心泛起一股暖流。

Starry Starry Night is a tender, heartfelt treat about the end of childhood and the loss of innocence and a flight of fancy well worth taking.
