Synopsis

When Zhao Fan wakes up, he finds the world unchanged, and the people still the same. But some films that should have existed... have vanished.

A senior in the directing program at Beijing Film Academy, he looks at the Chinese entertainment industry of 2003 and silently takes a drag from his cigarette.

Since nobody has made Parasite, Inception has gone unnoticed, and the script for Let the Bullets Fly is still locked in a drawer...

Then he won’t stand on ceremony.

From Venice to Cannes, from the Oscars to the mainland box office charts.

A reporter asks him, “Director Zhao, what’s the secret to your success?”

Zhao Fan takes the microphone and smiles. “I’m just a transporter.”

And, while he’s at it, he transports them all home too.
