A mythologically layered fantasy about fate, love, and second chances that weaves ancient Chinese and Finnish legend into a meditation on destiny across time.

Thousands of years ago in ancient China, a man fights against his destiny. He wants another chance to be reunited with his loved one and he gets that chance, in a far away place and a far away time, in modern Finland.
