2014年香港发生了一场雨伞运动，由青年带动整个运动的起伏，万人占领街道，以公民抗命的方式争取民主普选，除了各组织的青年领袖之外，还有更多无名的青年深入其中。没有知名人士和权威，《乱世备忘》不是运动发展的流水账，它备忘的是当中最“贴地”的情感：以幽默抵抗悲伤、以愤怒掩饰不安、胆怯但又步步前行。二十段备忘，备的是一群青年以“我们”为出发点的抗争，他们处理物资分配，搭建帐幕，亦开办补习教室和在前线流动占领，当中经历团结与分歧，从希望走到失落。在正面冲突的背后，他们在貌似琐碎的事务里，找寻自己参与抗争的方法；在摄影机背后，导演陈梓桓用影像写下一份备忘，不要忘记在2014年末那个找寻着自己理想和勇气的自己。

The next day police shocked most residents of the HKSAR by attacking the growing crowds with volleys of tear gas, whereupon a wide cross section of Hong Kongers occupied the streets in several areas and stayed for almost 6 weeks. Chan took his camera on the streets for 67 days during these events. He shot 1000 hours of footage, out of which he crafted a sensational and moving document featuring ...
