Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, a Chinese independent film project was canceled. The crew, locked out in a distant village, decide to shoot a film regardless of the conditions. They set out on a quest to find an actress from the locals while the producer reflects on his childhood in the village. The surreal stories of the first sexual experience, the childhood memories, a father beating his son, a dream with a bicycle and mister Bean, a wench excavating the field, a funeral, the bureaucracy of the government, new year’s eve, and mass prayers to counter the pandemic, compose a poem for a distant village.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
