Happiness is here and now.
7-year-old Nana treasures rare time together with her father, Alan.
This summer, Nana’s mother has to “cross the ocean” to Macau from Hong Kong every week for work.
Alan has learned enough to ask himself how to care for Nana; however, spending time alone with his daughter is not always harmonious. When facing Nana, Alan often forgets that the little mind in front of him is only tender age.
“Tick-tock, tick-tock” — Nana is uneasy about clocks, whether they’re the wall clock, adults’ watches, or clock assignments in homework.
When Nana’s rural grandma relocates due to government policy, Alan takes Nana to assist in packing up the old family home. Amidst the serene countryside, Nana gains a newfound appreciation for her father’s cooking skills, inherited from her grandmother, and their bond over food and cherished family memories.
While it is commonly believed that time moves slower in rural settings, change is inevitable, even if gradual.
