Ten years ago, Xu Zhinan lost Shen Tinglan in the evening breeze of the old harbor.
She thought it was just an ordinary goodbye. She never knew that the unspoken words "Wait for me" would leave them separated by an ocean. Ten years later, she is a documentary filmmaker who specializes in old streets and docks on the verge of disappearing, stubbornly trying to preserve her hometown's last traces of warmth through her camera. He is an urban planner who has returned from overseas, holding the redevelopment blueprint for the entire old harbor district.
Standing amid the ruins, with bulldozers about to roll in, they find themselves natural adversaries.
She accuses him of erasing memories, and he says nothing. Only when old files are unexpectedly made public does she glimpse the compromises and sacrifices hidden behind those cold redevelopment plans, things she never knew about.
The harbor wind has blown for ten years, and at last it scatters the dust covering the past.
Some love, it turns out, hasn't disappeared. Each of them had sealed it away in the old harbor that was about to vanish, waiting for a reunion to bring it back into the light.
