Bea says about this film “It’s a pure beauty and describes very well the life of the people under Mao in the rural environment, mixed with the traditions of the Chinese people. “
City businessman Luo Yusheng returns to his home village in North China for the funeral of his father, the village teacher. He finds his elderly mother insisting that all the traditional burial customs be observed, despite the fact that times have changed so much, and that it involves many people carrying his father's body back to the village - the road home. As Yusheng debates the complications involved in organising such a big feat, he remembers the magical story of how his father and mother first met and got together. (imdb.com).
