Synopsis
Twenty-something Muzi returns to her hometown of Hangzhou for Chinese New Year. Through interactions with her friends, family and lovers, both old and new, Muzi navigates what it means to be female – as a daughter, a sister and, most of all, as a woman who desires and wants to be desired. The black-and-white film, its inexplicable cuts and documentary-style sequences mirror the disconcerting experience of being surrounded by the new and the familiar as well as the occasionally bumpy road of a young woman’s self-discovery. Zheng Lu Xinyuan brings the audiences through Muzi’s journey slowly, but with a confident hand. The film ultimately emerges as a charismatic and thoughtful take on a woman’s identity in a constantly changing world.
