Features: This is a faithful portrait of a metropolitan woman in her thirtieth year. It delves into the true nature of each life stage, touching upon the motivations behind desires related to life, women, men, friendship, love, and the myriad yearnings of existence. The repeated struggles, the refinement of ascension, and the certainty of release—all stem from simple belief, simple persistence, and simple vitality. Such women who think, love, and love bravely are active in every corner of the city, sometimes fragile, sometimes willful and authentic. Have you seen her?
About Zhang Xiyun: A single woman, an Aquarius who dislikes the smell of smoke, is obsessed with coffee, and loves the crisp sound of beer colliding with ice. She is accustomed to using music and words to feed the hungry souls, playing marketing games with creativity. She runs wild with desires, then transforms into a bird soaring into the sky. She chews on the interplay of rationality and sensuality, appearing dazzling yet mellow, elusive yet real. Precisely because she has more passion and dissatisfaction for life, her desires can transcend narrow definitions of aggression and devouring. In the genuine pulse of life, she brews a broader and deeper soul. With each flight and wild run, I mark eternal witness with my desires.
