Meng Ran spent his repressed sophomore year in No. 1 Middle School in Roumu County. His left-behind childhood left old frostbite scars on his little finger. The movie and TV bookmarks hidden in the word book were peeked, and small-scale rumors and alienation followed one after another. Most of the classmates were busy preparing for the exam, and a few were whispering. Fortunately, some classmates were kind and supportive. He suppressed the longing for late night companionship in his heart, immersed himself in writing questions, and wanted to escape from the secluded environment in a distant city.
Thousands of miles away, young Wang Jiguang is trapped in the shadow of domestic violence. The corners of his eyes bear dark marks from childhood bumps. He is used to carrying everything alone. He uses his camera to record the lights of the lonely streets. He also longs for a stable companionship in the long dark night. The two of them spent their teenage years walking alone together, each covered in scars by pain, and never met each other.
Until they met at the university photography exhibition, the lens, the evening breeze and the late night street lights became connected, and they slowly got closer and confessed their weaknesses. From falling in love to living together day and night, the past rumors, trauma of domestic violence, and low self-esteem are slowly softened and healed by the company day after day; the shallow scars left by the new protection coexist with the marks of the past. They are no longer shackles of shame, but proof of each other's companionship and mutual redemption.
The scars will not disappear completely. The scabs are not closed, but soft and tough new ones grow. The two people who had survived the cold winter night alone tolerated all the fragility and cowardice of each other, smoothed out the wrinkles with love, became each other's bright light in the dark night, and walked on hot and steadily.
Purpose: Accept the scars of the past, grow with each other, heal with gentleness, and illuminate each other
