Synopsis
The film is about the generation gap between three generations of a family. After the daughter who had been living in the north for 14 years heard about her father's premonitory symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, she returned to her hometown with her American-educated granddaughter, and together with classmates who came after hearing the news, they found ways to persuade her father to move to Beijing.
The elderly man, who lived alone, could only see his daughter and American-educated granddaughter during holidays. They had been longing for a reunion, which finally came true, but unexpectedly, the hilarious story began from this reunion with the appearance of the granddaughter's ABC boyfriend.
