If history could speak, it would be broken voices.
In Shanghai in 1934, Gu Qingrang, an archaeological genius who had returned from overseas, walked into the ancient book shop of the blind girl Shen Shuyi holding a broken ancient jade that could illuminate memories.
She cannot see, but she can "read" the dusty past of the Republic of China deep in the jade with her fingertips; he can see clearly, but it is up to her to hear the hidden echoes of history. When their hands touched the ancient jade together, a past that had been sealed by blood and tears suddenly unfolded - the female reporter from the Republic of China who carved the coordinates in the jade, the missing case involving each other's families, and the legendary taboo place where the "Silent Sea" is buried.
The war is approaching and the undercurrent is surging. He became her eyes, allowing her to "see" the beacon fire and moonlight in her memory; she became his ears, allowing him to "hear" the tides and secrets deep underground. In the crisis-ridden pursuit, two hearts quietly get closer in the gaps of history.
However, all roads to the truth are marked with a price. When the final choice came, she used her blood as a string to play the sea of memory that drowned everything; and all he could do for the rest of his life was to continue her unfinished repairs in the peaceful years - repairing ancient books, repairing memories, and repairing the world without her.
This is an archeology completed with "hearing", a side-by-side sneaking in the deep sea of memory, and a poignant fable about protection, sacrifice and immortality.
Intention: In the torrent of history, how does an individual protect the memory of civilization with a small body, and in the process, complete the confirmation and transcendence of the meaning of life.
