About This Novel
Modern dancer Su Yufan returns to Jianchuan, Dali, with her mother's ashes and her own trauma (cancer diagnosis, career setback, emotional betrayal). When she was desperate, she just wanted to carve a monument for her mother to bury her, and then wait for the end of her life. However, the sound of the chisel and the dancing posture of the divine bird made her touch the hot vitality of Nanzhao culture. In Jianchuan, she blended modern dance with Overlord Whip Dance, used wood carvings to recreate the charm of armored horses and ancient musical instruments, and gave new life to intangible cultural heritage wood carvings through short videos. Dali's artistic fertile ground ignited her desire. Determined to pass it on through dance, she planned the dance drama "The Young Girl" to attract millions of attention, and even choreographed and directed the "Nanzhao Sacred Music" that has been lost for thousands of years, bringing the ancient beauty back to the world. In the practice of revitalizing the ancient town, her tears turned into the light of cultural confidence. When the music of this major work resounds on the international stage, Su Yufan feels like he is reborn. The warmth of the intangible cultural heritage not only healed her body and mind, but also allowed the thousand-year-old Nanzhao culture to shine brightly in the world - this is a healing story about life blooming again in the roots of culture.
