A film about "homesickness", but also a film about history. The slogans on the wall, the music in the ballroom, and the means of transportation in the country are all reflections of the times. Zhang Yuting handed over all the right to speak to the image, and connected the past, present and future through a long road of returning home. There is no heavy and profound, replaced by easy memories and just the right emotional changes. It is not so much that Zhang Yuting is reconstructing history, but rather that she is restoring those people and things that once lived in those times. Homesickness, like history, can always be interpreted indefinitely. It can be calm and rational, or it can be restrained with deep affection.
