China | 2024 | 12 Min. | Mandarin | Hebrew & English Sub | Fiction

A boy, labeled as a troublemaker, is taken by his mother to a strange institution. Contrary to her hopes, he continues his unruly behavior. There, he meets another child called “the monster,” who moves through life with unrestrained freedom. Through this encounter, the boy begins to understand the value of life and the quiet wisdom of nature - lessons that resonate more deeply than any sermon.
