Storyline

Zhou Jin, an elderly woman living alone in a village by the canal, is suddenly diagnosed with a brain tumor, forcing her children who have moved away to return home to care for her. Her eldest daughter Su Nianzhen, who runs a study-abroad consultancy in Shanghai and is going through her second divorce, insists on giving her mother the best treatment, while her younger son Su Nianqing, a wandering tour guide, supports his mother in letting go and accepting impermanence. Facing death, Zhou Jin seeks spiritual peace, and as Su Nianzhen and Su Nianqing discover their mother's secrets, they are also losing their last connection to their hometown.
