Write a short summary of what happens in the film

This eight-minute moving tale about three generations of women reflects China’s changing societal norms which drove a single mother to become estranged from her own mother, and face the adversity of raising her daughter unconventionally alone. The story concludes with an unexpected, yet heartfelt reunion on Chinese New Year’s Eve. An underlying message that continues to build on Apple’s belief that ‘No matter how far we grow apart, humanity will always reconnect us’.
