The experimental documentary poetically delves into a female artist's quest for self-identity. Shot on 16mm film, the narrative unfolds through the inner monologues of the female protagonist, merging raw, real-life documentation with dream-like artistic interpretations to deeply explore her complex and evolving mental landscape. The documentary not only reflects on the traditional constraints affecting contemporary Chinese women's sense of self-worth, desires, and life experiences but also navigates the emotional oscillations faced during the transition between old and new eras, seeking to resonate deeply with viewers and inspire spiritual connections.
