In early-21st-century Datong, aspiring actress/model Qiao Qiao (Zhao Tao) knew a hustling existence-and an affair with her manager Guao Bin (Li Zhubin)-until the day he left to seek his fortune elsewhere, and promised to send for her once he made it. Having never heard from him, she embarked to track him down... and their respective exploits across a shifting cultural landscape would find a COVID-era reunion, in Jia Zhang Ke's two-decades-in-the-making effort. 111 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Mandarin Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English; featurette; theatrical trailer. In Mandarin with English subtitles.
