该作品以动画的方式拍摄哥哥的家庭记忆，并由这些记忆延伸至两则发生在周遭的社会案件：有一位青少年被谋杀了，事发地点在哥哥年少时常去的网络咖啡厅，而这件事在新闻上被制作成了示意图。另一个事件也同样发生在老家附近，有人目击了一只狗游荡在街头，嘴里叼了一颗女人头颅，面孔因腐烂而无法辨识身份。一名警员依据头骨的外形，想象并绘制出女人生前的脸孔。这两个事件分别在公众媒体上被制成了肖像画—新闻业者以3D软体制作的漫画示意图，与警察以铅笔素描描绘的被害女人头像的警员，以及新闻动画的分镜师，透过他们绘图技术的思考，尝试在创作中构筑哥哥的记忆图像。

"A PhD Candidate" is a film about a Chinese PhD student living in America. He is sponsored by Chinese government. The government pays him some money every month for living expenses. In exchange he has to return to China right after graduation. After coming here, he found he still lives in a small circle of Chinese people isolated from the American society. His professor and peers are also from China. The environment makes him doesn’t have many chances to communicate with American people. And most importantly, he doesn’t think it is necessary to get integrated with the American social life. Since he knows he will not stay in here. He feels it is more comfortable to live in a closed environment. 　　The above is what interested me at the beginning. I intended to make this film of his life to see how this unusual identity influenced him. Along with the process of filming, I realized I was involving in a new form of transnational academic life. In American academia today there are many Chinese PhDs . The full scholarship or funding provided by Chinese government covered their tuition and living expenses. A PhD for them is more like a job, rather than studying. Also their relation with professors is similar to a kind of employment. So the film is not only about the identity of a foreigner, but also about a kind of academic labor outsourcing. Through watching the film the audience may find how it is like in the lower level of the academic pyramid.
