There Is No House Number on Wuming Street

In 2008, Chen Mo, a student from the Department of Urban Planning, accidentally entered an old street that did not exist on the map and met Lin Wan, a girl from the Department of Photography who was taking pictures of the street. The two fell in love on this nameless street and jointly fought against its fate of being demolished. In 2010, the street was bulldozed in silence and the two were separated. In 2023, Chen Mo accidentally dug out an old map and found that the location marked back then was blank. He began to search for this street and Lin Wan, whose memory was gradually blurring. At the same time, sound artist Lin Wan was also sorting out old recordings and found that the tapes on Wuming Street only had a rustling background noise. The two reconnected through anonymous online posts, unaware that they were each other. In the process of piecing together memories and investigating the truth, they discovered that the disappearance of this street was no accident-it concealed secret projects from the 1950s, and deeper still, there were secrets about the city that had been collectively forgotten.
