Hong Kong's massive and unprecedented public protests and demonstrations in early July 2003 are documented in July. The film shows individual and mass reactions to the proposed national security legislation. It preserves the speeches, songs, chants, posters, and banners, as well as the atmosphere, for those who were there, and introduces them to those who were not. As such, July is a record of events that could not occur anywhere else in China.

Lo-Sheng Sanatorium is Taiwan's only isolated hospital for leprosy patients. In the past, the government forced 1,000 patients into isolation. This lasted through the colonial government, the National government, and the reformed democratic government. For more than 50 years, the patients have made Lo-Sheng their home.

In 2002, with the construction of the Mass Rapid Transition, the government once again forced patients to move out of Lo-Sheng, tearing it down for economic benefits.
