Running Time: 110 Minutes

A twelve-year-old boy Kuankuan visits his aunt (Sequin Gowa) who is living alone after her retirement in Shanghai. Through his eyes his aunt appears stingy, out-of-date, loud, and ridiculous. Her neighbor (Lu Yan) also appears bizarre. But after a series of adventures together they have reached some understanding before he leaves for home.
