In this era, sex is all we want.
However, why can't we have love even if we want to, or get married even if we want to, have children (or have children) even if we want to, go home even if we want to, or be happy even if we want to?
I want to go home, but I don't dare to go home; I don't want to celebrate the New Year, but I want to celebrate the New Year!
Why do those decent, dignified, happy and beautiful lives become more and more distant...
It is said that the New Year is difficult, as if it is an old saying - there is no money to buy rice, no rice to cook, and you have to pay rent or food, etc.
But at the age of 12, the Gregorian New Year is approaching. 23-Year-old Cui Ping (Ding Zhiping) wants to have sex but can't, 29-year-old Gan Ningmi wants to get married but can't, 31-year-old Qiao Jing wants to have children but can't, 33-year-old Ding Zhiyuan wants to get promoted but can't... How can I go home to celebrate the New Year? But why do their parents, and even the entire family members who have become estranged from each other, want, urge or even force them to go home for the New Year?
Therefore, surrounding whether they can go home, whether they can celebrate the Chinese New Year, and what they will celebrate during the Chinese New Year, these four young people have become the axis of contradictions and compromises, the hub of entangled family ties and interests. They are tossing up and down in the intertwined grievances and resentments of the four families, and entangled in the changing fate of five generations (grandparents, grandparents, parents and uncles, Ding Zhiyuan's generation, and the next generation).
