This is a feminine film that is romantic, poetic and sad. This film recounts memories of one day of a young woman who has insomnia by presenting her experiences from the lack of love to the independence of emotion.

The broken pieces of Xia Meng's life slowly assemble to paint the portrait of a Chinese woman and her relationship with Men. With the father she barely knew as a young girl. With the lovers of one night, of one week, of one life. A recollection of short memories of one day, her experiences of the lack of love and the independence of emotion. Like a sleepwalker, Xia Meng trails through her life, the only thing asleep during her sleepless days being a bamboo forest and a children's promise.—Enzo Riedinger
