This documentary explores the subtle, unexpressed love of a Chinese family through the story of a second-hand bookshop in the Siming district of Xiamen. Depicting a typical Chinese family, the film explores the complex relationships between family members, demonstrating the cultural significance of family ties and their importance to Chinese society. The story of the bookstore is a metaphor for the family, as the owner's son inherits his father's bookstore and carries on the family tradition. By exploring this connection, the audience is able to better understand the social context in which the film is set. The relationship between family members is also particularly highlighted, and the relationship between the son and his father is the best example of this love, as seen in the film. The main character's love for his own father is to take over the bookshop; his love for his own child is that he wants him to do what he wants to do and not take over the bookshop. In addition, the documentary demonstrates the traditional Chinese value of filial piety through the son's dedication to his father's bookshop. The film follows the son of the former shopkeeper who inherited the shop and provides an insight into the nuances of Chinese families. Through a day in the life of the shop owner, the viewer is able to appreciate the difficulties of running a second-hand bookshop in the age of digital information technology, while gaining a deeper understanding of the subject matter and the story being told. The film also draws heavily on the cultural and historical context of Xiamen. The city has a long history of bookselling, and the documentary explores this history and how it has shaped the bookstore and its manager. The city's unique culture and history is an integral part of the film's design, giving the audience an insight into Xiamen and its people.
