陳耀圻回台拍攝《劉必稼》期間，結識了就讀於藝專的黃永松、牟敦芾、黃貴蓉三人，在藝術與電影之外，爬山亦為三人平日消遣。擔任《劉必稼》拍攝助理的黃永松，一句「五指山很好玩，每個月都會去」，促成了久居美國的陳耀圻與三位年輕人結伴登山的機會，並以攝影機一探台灣文青的生活樣貌，也記錄下三位好友的電影夢想。 陳耀圻以手持攝影的搖晃感、自由的跳接，創造出碎拍般的節奏，加上鏡頭前三位年輕人即興、奔放的表現，使得全片洋溢青春活力。片中穿插幾段訪談，三人對於越戰無感冷淡的回應，不僅透露出台灣年輕世代與世界的疏離，亦與六零年代全球青年的反抗風潮脫節；貫穿全片的〈California Dreamin'〉亦暗示了彼時以美國為首的西方文化的無所不在，與新竹五指山、觀音禪寺的東方意象，共同鋪展出青年人遠離現實的逃逸路徑。 In his spare time when filming Liu Pi-chia (1967), the director follows three art school students Yongsong HUANG, Tun-fei MOU and Gui-rong HUANG as they enjoy an excursion into the mountains in Hsinchu. The three interviewees talk about their artistic ideals and dreams, how only KMT party members were eligible for scholarships, and their views on the Vietnam War; the song “California Dreamin”plays throughout the film, highlighting the dejection in the zeitgeist. The original film of this short film lay in a UCLA professor's garage for decades and underwent digital restoration by Taiwan Film Institute a half century later.
