On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family’s history that began before he was born — a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam — and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity. Asking questions central to our American moment, immersed as we are in addiction, violence, and trauma, but undergirded by compassion and tenderness, On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is as much about the power of telling one’s own story as it is about the obliterating silence of not being heard.

三位從越南走難來港的青年(曾泉盛、李國松、游慶豐飾演)，對生活有不同的選擇。有人賣身搵快錢，希望獲得美國居留權後，在異地重頭開始新生活；有人面對現實，在畫廊畫「搵食畫」，只求解決三餐一宿；有人依然懷抱夢想，希望到法國學畫畫。
可惜難民身不由己，一生只能漂泊於命運的波濤裏 ，唯一肯定的是他們都背負着一段殘酷過去。
