Nine-year-old Ling leads a happy life with her parents, who are both dedicated doctors. Her world gradually starts to disintegrate when Comrade Li, one of Mao’s political officers, moves into their apartment.

Over the course of four years, and despite witnessing many horrors, Ling not only survives, but manages to bloom as well.
