Storyline

Thirteen-year-old Meiduo lives and studies at a welfare school in the Tibetan region. After her parents' divorce, she can only stay with her elderly grandparents. To regain the family love she has lacked since childhood, Meiduo overcomes many difficulties and bravely ventures alone into the depths of the grasslands to find her father. Seeing her father's happy family with sons, daughters, livestock, and grassland, Meiduo is filled with mixed emotions but has no one to confide in. Facing the sunlight, she holds her paintbrush to express her longings and imagination. In the commercial digital age, people communicate emotions online, changing traditional lifestyles and nomadic culture. Rising divorce rates have become a social issue affecting more and more families, and many children become 'orphans' in the wake of marital breakdown. 'Daughter of the Light' records Meiduo's dreamlike journey alone to find her father and a sense of belonging, showing how a young life overcomes numerous challenges and grows strong amid the changes of the times.
