    No romantic pairing. A farming/developmental story. Slow-paced. Very slow. And very enjoyable. It depicts the transport of resources between two eras. The happiness derived from material security during times of scarcity. The appreciation for everyday items. Work gloves are disassembled to knit sweaters. Even socks costing ten yuan for seven pairs are treasures.
