A whole line of patients are waiting outside a quaint Chinese medicine store— Yi He Tang. A sense of sorrow permeates all areas.

There is only one thing they want— the secret formula for broken hearts.

Most people must have experienced love pain, a terrible feeling that is beyond description, and that’s where this story begins...
導演的話
四年前，我在報紙上看到一則新聞，在愛沙尼亞的塔林古城有一家從中世紀就開業至今的老藥局，宣稱握有〝治療心碎〞的祕方 。又過了一些日子，我看到了另一則新聞『心碎真的會死』，根據美國心臟名醫沙克利的研究，心碎會有如〝心臟腦震盪〞的症狀，嚴重會導致心臟衰竭而死 。
而在古老的中藥文化裡，一直也都有紓解憂鬱的藥方，慢慢地，在我的腦海裡產生了一些畫面。心碎是一種難以筆墨形容的痛，戀人的心裡，大都嚐過這種苦頭，故事是從這裡開始...

紀錄一群來自屏東縣來義鄉文樂部落及三地門鄉德文上北巴部落的排灣族年輕人，用排灣族語創作流行音樂及追求音樂夢想之路的故事。
他們熱愛音樂，並且用他們擅長的排灣族語來寫流行音樂，以傳統當元素，加入嘻哈、饒舌、拉丁和搖滾的曲風，來重新詮釋編寫他們的歌曲，竟意外的成為影響原住民年輕人學習族語的歌曲，形成一股排灣族社會小朋友及年輕人學習族語就會聽他們的歌曲的正面的力量，這也是他們當初沒有想到的。
他們帶著這樣的音樂到處演出、比賽，在2011年獲得海洋音樂大賞之後，受到賞識，開始與經紀公司合作，公司安排的經紀人是一個從來沒有去過部落，不了解原住民的漢族年輕女孩，在相處時產生的一些誤會、摩擦與衝突，這應該也是原、漢在這大社會相處的縮影吧！
進入經紀公司所掌控的音樂市場之後，不如他們所想像的那麼簡單與順利，在收入不穩定的情況下家庭經濟面臨了困難、音樂創作受到限制等現實問題，使得他們陷入前所未有的低潮。
在這段期間的起起落落中，他們參與了9場張惠妹世界巡迴演唱會台灣場的演出，幾個月的準備、以及和張惠妹的演出，讓他們站在和夢想最靠近的地方，可是月收入還是非常少，等待簽約的慢慢長路及與經紀人原、漢差異的種種狀況,他們是否繼續堅持音樂之路：希望唱出讓全世界藉由他們的音樂認識台灣原住民排灣族的夢想...
