The Seventh Day I Met You

The daily life of pet undertaker Lin Xi is to talk to death, using calmness to build an ice shell, sealing the biting chill of his beloved dog Douchi being forcibly sent away by his father fifteen years ago. Until the journey begins on the seventh day. Six special commissions came one after another: a demented old man clinging to an urn under the moonlight, a domestic violence victim cat with blood hidden in its claws, a construction site dog that brought back the missing left-behind children at the fire site, a blind man and a guide dog who reserved a double urn, an Internet celebrity cat that died of poisoning at a million-dollar funeral, a scientist and a laboratory rat burdened with a genetic curse... Every farewell cast a boulder in her frozen heart, reflecting the struggle and glimmer of the abyss of human nature. On the seventh day, the guidance of the psychiatrist Dr. R brought her back to the starting point. The dust-laden truth is revealed - the father's rage and "abandonment" were actually a protection in the name of hatred. Douchi did not die tragically. He lived his whole life in peace and took the pseudonym "Lao Chai". Under the sunshine of the nursing home, my father tremblingly handed over a small box of ashes. Lin Xi took it and finally placed it gently on the grassy lawn. **The real way back is to understand all the deep-rooted love and dust, let go of the heavy past, let the sunshine embrace the scars, and regain the power of living on the threshold of death. **Seven farewells in seven days, one self-redemption.
