The core starting point of this film is a creative attempt at perspective.I try to return to a kind of fresh eyes from the perspective of a child.In this way, it re-examines the emotional relationship under the anxiety of survival, and captures the strong atmosphere of the “falling middle class” in current China.As the economy turns rapidly, from the fabled riches to the industrial thunderstorms, I met more “middle class falling” ride-hailing drivers. All kinds of wechat business pyramid selling scandal strings into the story in a model of chain reaction: the leader of the group constantly made a dream of wealth to entice the followers into the game, and the followers can only turn into the perpetrator, continue to set the trap for lower-level followers to unhook. As the pace quickened, everybody fought harder and harder to find the next target to avoid being the fall guy.Mei Li is the “new bottom” among them, lured by the harvest, and she continues the dangerous hunt in this tiny car. She pushed hard at life, hungry for change.But existent of the little child is irreversible, the only thing Mei Li can do is to wipe her bottom bit by bit in broad daylight.As a mother, under the turbulence of life, she seems to unford a bit of toughness and tenderness.She is trapped, she bears and struggles to win a real home for his child with her last self-esteem.
