Plot

Taking place in a ruined family compound after the Sino-Japanese War, the film tells the story of the once-prosperous Dai family. The husband and patriarch, Dai Li Yan, is invalid and spends his days in the courtyard nostalgic for the past. His marriage to Zhou Yu Wen has long been rendered loveless, though both still feel concerned for the other. Li Yan's young teenage sister Dai Xiu, meanwhile, is too young to remember the past and stays cheerful and playful in the ruins of her home.
Into this dreary but unchanging existence comes Li Yan's childhood friend Zhang Zhi Chen, a doctor from Shanghai and a former flame of Zhou Yu Wen before she ever met her husband. The rest of the film details Zhou Yu Wen's conflicting emotions between her love for Zhang and her loyalty to her husband and his family.
