In fifth grade, Gu Zhao accused Xu Mu of stealing.
Xu Mu was made to stand in the hallway all afternoon.
From that day on, he swore he'd beat Gu Zhao at everything for the rest of his life.
At twenty-five, they meet again in court.
Gu Zhao sits at the prosecutor's table, sunlight falling across his shoulders.
Xu Mu sits at the defense table, a case file hiding half his face.
Gu Zhao: "Attorney Xu, answer my question directly."
Xu Mu: "Prosecutor Gu, there are gaps in your chain of evidence."
Everyone thinks they're completely at odds.
Only Gu Zhao knows he's been waiting ten years for this reunion.
Theme: Both love and justice deserve to be proven. From adversaries to standing side by side, time is the best testimony.
