Xiao Ai, a young woman working in textiles with a promising future, suffers from a fatal illness and her days are numbered. She is aware her parents will become ‘a lost family’ without anyone to look after them after she dies, and tries to convince them to have another child. The policy of a unique child has been lasting for 30 years in China. In China today, there are one million families who lost their unique child and whose future is not under the best auspices. They are bound to face huge difficulties to be admitted in health centers or retirement centers if they lost their unique son or daughter, their sole financial guarantee.
“People cannot choose reality, but you can choose hope, and to move forward is the best light” Liu Hao.
