1920年代日治時期，佃農兄弟阿助與阿尾聽聞金蟾蜍傳說，決定背棄長工契約，投奔金瓜石淘金。底層礦工做著發財夢，但日本殖民管理的嚴苛，讓他們持續被刁難壓搾。封閉的山城裡，礦工和妓女日復一日地出賣尊嚴、勞力和肉體，悲苦男女之間的情愫，與不認命的憤慨之情，卻也同步醞釀著。無言的山丘上，出走、上吊、反動、礦災接踵而來，王童「台灣近代三部曲」的第三部曲中，鄉土小人物的命運在希望與絕望間徘徊。

During Japan's Colonial Rule in the 1920s, brothers A-Chu and A-Wei escaped their exploitative jobs to Jinguashui, a town known for its gold mining industry. They came for their fortune, but Japanese-run mines are gruelling, and they can't avoid being exploited again. In the isolated hill, coal miners and prostitutes surrender their dignity and bodies to struggle for survival. Meanwhile, there's infatuation among one another, and a sense of rebellion in the air.
