In the summer of 2015, heavy rains raged in Yicun, Jiangsu Province, the rivers swelled and the dams were in emergency condition. Chen Deshui, a 70-year-old water conservancy expert, adheres to tradition and advocates using wooden rollovers to fight floods; his son Chen Mingyuan, the director of a water conservancy station, advocates mechanized and efficient drainage; but his grandson Chen Xiaofeng advocates relying on technological predictions and upstream intelligent systems. The ideas of three generations collide fiercely, and the village is in danger.
At a critical moment, they led the whole village to make a surprising decision: to reinforce the dam with their ancestors' tombstones!
Tradition and modernity are integrated. Chen Deshui summons villagers to overturn the car, Chen Mingyuan directs the machinery, and Xiaofeng optimizes intelligent drainage.
…
In the end, this flood-fighting epic is based on the integration of tradition and technology in the process of China's modernization. It uses tombstones as the basis to pass on wisdom and give new life to overturned cars. It reflects the courageous spirit of the Chinese people and the regenerative power of intangible cultural heritage!
