The Road Home (Chinese)
"The Road Home" begins its story in a dull, frozen black-and-white. Yusheng (Honglei Sun) is driving to the small Chinese village in which he was raised.

Yusheng narrates for us a story he heard often as a child: his parents' courtship. His father, Luo Changyu (Hao Zheng), came to the village at age 20 as a new schoolteacher. His mother, Zhao Di (Ziyi Zhang), was 18 years old and immediately smitten with the young, handsome professional.
