The Wind Was Warm That Year in Hengyang

In 2006, Chen Yang, a young man from Xianyang, headed south to Hengyang and began four years of youth at Nanhua University. Four to a dorm room, four brothers from every corner of the country. Rice noodles, betel nut, and gangster movies on DVD made up their youthful underworld. One evening, at a rice-noodle stall, he met Lin Zhixia, and a shy young love quietly began to grow. From impulsive loyalty on campus to one hard knock after another in the working world; from being together day and night to drifting apart in a sea of people. Twenty years passed, bringing regrets in love, changes in friendship, and ups and downs in their careers. There are no grand, sweeping legends here, only the vivid, heartfelt youth of ordinary people. The years have passed, but the winds of Hengyang are still blowing. The youth of that year lives on.
