有一種夢想是倒立著的。從小練雜技特技的台灣年輕人黃明正，在26歲時告訴身邊所有人，他要用賣藝環遊世界十五年，拍攝一系列倒立的照片，周邊的人對他的夢想藍圖感到不可置信。兩年後，他完成五個月的環台計畫並創作《透明之國》演出， 隨即獲得台新藝術獎的肯定，接著出書、策劃雜技藝術節、並且登上TED講述自己的夢想……

耗時兩年，記錄一種台灣馬戲特技新世代的體現方式，呈現黃明正的全台灣街頭演出計畫全貌。掌聲歡呼的背後，是一個人孤獨磨練。鏡頭下，黃明正靜靜地爬上巨岩、攀上吊橋、在車水馬龍中倒立著，世界彷彿為了這屏息的一刻、一幕，而暫時停止了轉動。

Ming-Cheng started his ambitious plan about shooting photos of himself handstanding in different places around the world at the age of 26. In 2-3 years, his first voyage was accomplished with a series of breathtaking photos featuring characteristic Taiwanese scenery, street view and local people. His production “Transparent Kingdom ” inspired by this journey was awarded the Jury’s special award of the remarkable Taishin Arts Award.

We see him climbing on a gigantic rock, jumping on a bridge, or being in the morning traffic of Taipei. Ming-Cheng handstands with his dream. What lies behind this typical inspiring story of chasing dreams is the unbearable loneliness during the voyage in time, or in life.
