Features: The small town in the Jiangnan region during the 1920s is the setting of the story. Such small towns no longer exist today, having become part of historical relics. People's imagination pierces through the thin veil of time, bringing the past back to life, reversing time, and reviving old dreams. The Jiangnan small town in the story finally appears before us. A large river flows through the center of the town, turning at the bustling streets and extending toward the distant railway line. This is an era where the new and the old alternate. New ideas and old forces are both fragile yet incredibly powerful.
