<h3>電影講述2019年香港爆發反逃犯條例運動，多名年輕人自殺抗議惡法。17歲少女YY在網上預告輕生，引發少年手足們追踪搶救。</h3>榮獲金馬影展奈派克獎，提名金馬獎最佳剪輯、最佳新導演、國際影評人費比西獎！

In June 2019, a series of massive demonstrations took place against the Hong Kong government’s attempt to revise and pass the Extradition Law. Many young protesters attempted to commit suicide to validate their opposition. The story takes place on 28th July, a week after the white mob attack in Yuen Long. YY, a 17-year-old girl, announced her attempt to end her life on Instagram. After that, she couldn’t be contacted or located. Nam, the 20-year-old “comrade” who met YY at a protest-related arrest frantically searches for her around the Kwai Tsing district where she lives. Her photo and other information were posted on Telegram and LIHKG Forum, urging hundreds of volunteers to join the search. It’s a run against time; an emotionally exhausting hunt. <h3></h3>自香港政府為強行通過修訂「引渡逃犯」條例，而出現多次大型示威及武力鎮壓後，多名年輕人先後墮樓自殺，以死明志。7月28日（即721元朗白衣人無差別襲擊市民的一星期後），曾被補的17歲中學生YY在社交媒體Instagram 留言自殺。同樣於抗爭被補的阿南、Louis、Zoe等人，連同朋友、社工，甚至素未謀面的「手足」組成搜救小隊，於YY居住的葵涌區分頭搜索。縱使Telegram上「救命」公海群組與「連登」討論區的網民仗義加入搜索，卻仍大海撈針。地點從葵盛到全城最熱鬧的旺角，均芳踪渺然。與此同時，示威者在烽煙四起的港島區街頭奮力抵抗，更導致搜救小隊出現嚴重分歧。抗爭與搜救之間，少年們猶如陷入進退維谷……May You Stay Forever Young is finally in the US with screening all across the country.
