sehr gut geschrieben, aus dem feminine-/female-gaze heraus erzählte Geschichte von Huang Yi Mei. Die Dialoge sind extrem feinsinnig scharf beobachtet und spiegeln 1:1 dokumentarfilmgleich Familie, Single-Leben und überhaupt viele sozialen Veränderungen Chinas der letzten 30 Jahre wider. Die Handlung hat sogar Parallelen zu der Biografie der Mutter der Hauptdarstellerin Liu Yi Fei; Liu Xiao Li. Whether or not those inpirations were intentional, - the actress and all her co-stars all nail their roles. Its a drama with so many ordinary extraodinary moments in life, similar to the Shen Dao religion - there is no good and evil, every human does her or his best with good intentions, but the tragic comic encounters still lead to this inspiring and heart warming story that will leave you encouraged to walk your own path - especially when you are an intelligent young woman. Kudos to the original novel`s writer Yi Shu.
