A mosquito net protects a good night's sleep and also protects the most authentic memories of a home. In the 1930s, a Japanese family moved to "Saikawa-cho" in Taipei due to the father's work and lived in a new house with the fragrance of cypress wood. This was the first time they had a bathroom with gas and modern facilities. The children each found their own room and hung up the mosquito net at night to welcome the beginning of a new life. In the story, the mosquito net is not just a daily necessity, but also a clue that connects memories. It symbolizes every period of time of settlement, whether in Taiwan or Japan, carrying the breath of the family and a moment of stability.
