Synopsis
This short film delves into the Peking Opera club of the Fourth Primary School of Donggaodi in Fengtai District, Beijing, to explore what Peking Opera is like in the eyes of children. When sweat flows over the oil paint and the tender voices sing in the old tunes, what we witness is not only the inheritance of national treasures, but also the unique journey of a little soul growing between its role and itself.
