In Anyang, a medium-sized city from Chinese province Henan, Yu Dashang , a worker in his forties has no means of support, being suddenly jobless. One evening, he finds a basket with a new born baby abandoned by his mother in the middle of the street. She is Feng Yanli, a prostitute from Manchuria, and she promises whosoever would take care of her child, a monthly reward of 200 yuans. Yu Dashang meets the mother and accepts her offer. A mutual love grows between the child and the worker, but the presumed father of the child, a pimp, after discovering his leukaemia, decides to take him back.

Wang Chao made the adaptation of one of his novels. Shot without authorisation, the film denounces the taboo of unemployment and misery in a country where every person is supposed to be supported by the government; it also denounces the taboo of prostitution and of corruption.
