On the eve of her birthday, Xiong Dun loses her job and her boyfriend, and when things can’t get any worse, she collapses mysteriously and is hospitalized. From that moment on, Xiong embarks on a journey to live life to the fullest, determined to balance her illness with joyful and poignant moments.
Surely you weren’t expecting a rip-roaring comedy about terminal illness? Director Han Yan supplies the unexpected in this raucous and candy-colored live-action adaptation of a manga artist’s personal story about coping with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Vivid, bruisingly emotional, yet never mawkish.
