Yang Xiaoji, a girl of the Dong ethnic minority, lives with her younger siblings and paraplegic grandmother in Wuji Village, deep in the mountains. Xiaoji's parents work in Shenzhen. It's almost Chinese New Year, and the township is holding a Dong song contest, in which Xiaoji won the first place in the primary school song contest. The whole family hoped that their parents would come back soon for a reunion, but time and time again, they were disappointed. In order to let the children whose parents are not back have a happy New Year's Eve, Teacher Xu and the village chief organised a lively New Year's Eve dinner for the whole village.
