In the winter of 1990, the snow fell very heavily. The entire Xiakou Village in Tongdu City, Gan Province was covered with thick white snow, making it look particularly quiet and desolate. This place is notoriously remote, and people's lives are tight, just like the land that has been frozen hard and lifeless.
Liang Jintao, a young man who was born in this remote rural area, his family is so poor that it makes people sad. There is a seriously ill old father and young brothers and sisters at home, and the burden of the whole family falls on his shoulders alone. His life is like a candle in the cold wind, swaying and fragile.
