A truth buried in heavy snow, an inquiry spanning eighty years.
In the mountainous area of southern Hubei, the snow is beginning to clear. During an ordinary field survey, four architecture students accidentally set foot on a ruins forgotten by history. When a child's skull appears under the snow, and when the bones in the unknown grave are revealed to the light of day, a tragic past that has been deliberately sealed in dust is torn open.
The gaffe of Japanese student Takeshita Qinghe is the beginning of the clue and the center of the storm. The body of a martyr with a special identity involves the fate of two countries, three families, and two generations. As a yellowed diary and a strange group photo gradually surfaced, everyone was shocked to realize that a few strokes in a history book might be someone's life. Under the hero's tombstone, perhaps endless lies and sacrifices are buried.
When retired senior officials in Nanjing and ancient Japanese families are involved, everyone must face the ultimate torture: in the face of the torrent of the times and personal love and hate, what is loyalty and what is betrayal? And what was ultimately buried in that heavy snow was evidence of crime, or was it the sincere heart of a woman struggling painfully between the hatred of her country and her family?
