Synopsis

Wang Changchi shouldn't be here. For generations, his family have dreamed of escaping their poverty-stricken village, with all hopes on him to finally make it out - but when he misses his chance due to a twist of fate, his only way into the city is by risking his life as an illegal construction worker.

Even if his chance has gone, he can still stake it all on the next generation. The Wangs could finally have a winner - all it would take is a few words on the right documents. But the cost of rewriting fate could require giving up everything…
