From the acclaimed director of Woman From the Lake of Scented Souls, A Girl From Hunan and A Mongolian Tale comes this award-winning epic love story. Xie Fei again demonstrates his proclivity for imbuing landscape with beauty, poignancy and an almost human soul. On a visit to her grandparents, a young woman learns the origins of their courtship. Through an ingenious unfolding series of breathtaking flashbacks, she realizes that life is ripe with choice and opportunity that demand initiative to be fully realized. Armed with new perspective she takes stock of her own relationships, ignoring assumed givens and stepping truly out into her own life. Directed by Xie Fei. With Laqiong, Danzenzuoga, Dazhen.
