Lin Wan, an urban professional, returns to her hometown intending to demand justice from the biological father who abandoned his family years ago. Instead, she discovers that the disabled Wang, a bamboo-weaving craftsman looked down upon by the villagers, is her father. Twenty-eight years earlier, he lost his right leg while helping others and faked his death, living under an assumed identity so he would not burden his wife and daughter. Just as father and daughter reconcile, developer Zhao Tianxiang conspires with Lin Wan's ex-boyfriend, Chen Mo, to steal the trademark of the village's intangible cultural heritage bamboo-weaving craft and seize its bamboo forest for an illegal development project. Lin Wan stages a calculated act of suffering, pretending to betray the villagers by signing a land agreement. At the developers' celebratory livestream, she turns the tables by exposing a counterattack clause in the contract and irrefutable evidence of ecological red-line violations, crushing their scheme. Afterwards, Lin Wan gives up her lucrative city job and stays in her hometown, helping her father get a prosthetic leg as they work together to revive the intangible cultural heritage of bamboo weaving in Liuxi Village.
