In Jingnan, on the Pinghuai River, Nanshan Yue's performance of A Dream in the Garden brought the whole city to a standstill.
Back then, Huo Huaichu sat on the riverbank, legs crossed, his expression distant.
When he met her, she had already stopped performing opera. She spent her days sitting in her home, gazing at the sky enclosed by its walls, sorrow plainly written in her eyes.
Everyone said opera singers had no feelings. Only he knew that beneath her proud, unyielding spirit, she held her country close to her heart.
The Republican era was a time of drunken revelry, and also a time of widespread suffering. In that era, they had to find a way to survive.
We reenact our past lives in a film and walk that road once more. This time, I know you love me.
We speak our love aloud before a room full of guests. This time, everyone will know how hard-won our love is.
