When Zhao Xiaoyi passes the entrance exam to enroll as an art student, it’s more to her than a chance to pursue her creative dreams. After years of close supervision at home, it also means freedom and independence. Away at school at last, a lonelier Zhao finds there may be more to miss at home than there is to discover on her own. Meanwhile, things are not all well with her mom, as career troubles and domestic problems collide to overwhelm her.
Reviews
Excellent but underrated film
What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.
I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Plot is too past-fashion, and all crew members didn't have any acting skills. Just a work from high school student
