Film Introduction

A feisty single mother, Wang Tiemei (Song Jia), moves to a new home with her child, Wang Jasmine (Zeng Mumei), and befriends her so-called sober love-brain neighbor, Xiaoye (Zhong Chuxi). Two women with very different personalities, one strong, one soft, one good at mothering people, one good at lying at all times. Facing old traumas and new challenges, they warm and comfort each other. The two men surrounding Wang Tiemei, her ex-husband (Zhao Yuting), who "messes things up" from time to time, and her daughter's drummer teacher (Zhang Yu), seem to be full of new possibilities. As women who have awakened and men who have learned about gender issues, what new problems will they encounter? How will they see themselves and the world?
