MTR (Empty R) Presentation: https://youtu.be/E4x1R9I_1E4 Synopsis: A journey that is familiar to viewers is shown depicted in the story, a journey from the protagonist’s home to the MTR station. He was alone all the way and the encountered environment is abnormally empty and quite, that the “creak creak creak” sound from the escalator is over powering any voice. Following his journey going through the empty entrance, platform and carriage, they seem larger than usual without other passengers filling the space.
