I want to tell you a story
about my aunt.
Maybe it will help you
after you hear it.
I remember
it was a hot summer in Shanghai.
My grandfather never got to see the person
he was waiting for before he passed.
[1936, Shanghai]
I knew who he was waiting for.
It was my aunt,
who was studying in Germany at the time.
Becoming a doctor
was my father's and my shared dream.
All these years,
my father hid his illness
and our family's struggles
so I could focus on my studies abroad.
I never expected
everything to happen so suddenly.
May I ask your name, miss?
My surname is Lin.
You're beautiful.
Do you have a ride?
Yes, I do.
Goodbye.
Nice glasses.
They're yours now.
I bought them in the U.K.
You didn't bring me any gifts
for my homecoming?
