[Lin Chaosheng, an international award-winning documentary director, is most afraid of two things - the deep sea and the paintbrush of painter Fu Qianyu.
Fu Qianyu, the coldest rising star in the painting world, can paint the deepest fears in people's souls with her brushes.
When Lin Chaosheng approached her as a visual consultant for the documentary, Fu Qianyu only said one sentence: "I can help you, but you have to let me paint you."
"What you drew is the sea." She looked into his eyes and said when they met for the first time.
"How do you know?"
"Because I died once in the sea."
This is not an evenly matched cooperation, but a game of skinning each other. He wants to capture the deepest fears in the world, and she wants to capture the truth that he least wants to face. During the year-long filming, they went from being wary of each other to relying on each other, from tit-for-tat to sharing life and death. When the truth that has been buried for twenty years emerges, when the brush and camera are pointed at the abyss at the same time——
They discovered that their deepest fear was not drowning in the sea, but never being truly seen.
And this time, they saw each other.
