浪接浪的政治風暴讓香港的面貌變得不同了。一直被視為香港核心價值的「獅子山精神」，在一片喧鬧聲中，再次被熱烈討論。年長一輩通常以此為傲，認為當年的香港人，憑著堅毅不屈的拼勁，加上人與人之間互相扶持，不但實現了安居樂業的理想生活，也推動了社會經濟起飛，香港人更逐漸建立出一份自我的身份認同。然而，身處於時代巨輪中的香港新生代，對「獅子山精神」卻有另一番演繹。跨越近半世紀的「獅子山精神」見證了跨世代的價值觀差異，三位成長於不同年代的香港人將一起解讀這種演變。
The social unrest of recent times has changed Hong Kong forever. The ‘Lion Rock spirit’, which has been regarded as one of the core values of Hong Kong, is once again heatedly discussed. Older generations tend to be proud of this: it is believed the ‘spirit’ drives people to work hard in unity and perseverance, and it not only improves the quality of life, but also promotes economic growth, which gradually shapes the Hong Kong identity. However, younger generation, at a time of great turmoil, has a contrasting interpretation of this idea. Three Hongkongers of different generations will explore the evolving changes in the interpretation of the ‘Lion Rock spirit’.
