Tie Yan, the sixth-generation inheritor and head manager of an embroidery workshop, faces a demolition plan by the developer Jia Fugui. Giving themselves a three-month deadline, he and his apprentice Mo Dou team up to embroider A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains. Moved by the embroidery upon seeing it and recalling his carpenter father, Jia has a sudden epiphany and calls off the development. Together, the three delve into ancient embroidery techniques, open a free embroidery school, embroider a long scroll of old street scenery, safeguard traditional embroidery art, and let every single stitch carry the cultural heritage of the old street and the artisan's original aspiration.
