For years, Le Ying (portrayed by Jia Ling) has remained cloistered at home, drifting aimlessly through life. Despite graduating from college and dabbling in work, she opts to retreat from society, seeking solace in isolation as a means of self-reconciliation. However, a series of serendipitous events prompts her to reconsider her approach to life. Tentatively stepping into the outside world, Le Ying encounters boxing coach Hao Kun (played by Lei Jia-Yin). Just as she begins to envision a brighter future, unforeseen challenges arise, testing her resilience and ushering in a new chapter of vibrant living.
Ling Jia underwent a significant transformation for her character in the film, gaining weight from 90 KG to 105 KG, before eventually losing weight and reaching 55 KG over the course of nearly one year of filming.
The film is written, directed by and stars Jia Ling, China’s top-grossing female filmmaker.
