Features: A man's tale of encounters, awkwardness, and struggles. A young man who has just graduated and enters government service is not indifferent to desires, yet he clashes with this era full of them. As a result, he is rejected by society, excluded by the bureaucracy, deceived by unscrupulous merchants, and turns against his wife. The women he loves also throw themselves into the arms of others. He can only choose to flee—fleeing from the bureaucracy, from the business world, from marriage, and even from love. Yet, he cannot escape beyond reality and desire. How can he settle himself, where can he store his lonely soul? When everything seems to have an answer, and love is about to be regained, an unexpected disaster suddenly strikes. Fate is cruel, the ups and downs of the spirit and flesh are the trajectory of the heart, and also a microcosm of the times!
