Bai Ji randomly buys a train ticket, planning to slip away and die in an unfamiliar city.
On the southbound train, he meets Zhang Zhen, a young man headed for the same final stop.
At a certain moment, they sense something similar in each other: a melancholy born of feeling lost and struggling. Their souls briefly embrace.
“I spent the whole night thinking at the train station. You came here to die in the first place. If I leave, you’ll definitely die. I’ve thought it through. How about… we try living together?”
The alley is dark and damp, and the rental room is run-down. Their lives are much the same, with little sunlight reaching them. But moss grows in the corners and on the floor. Even in the darkness, a spark of life remains.
