The father, Takeda (played by Takakura Ken), rushes from Japan to Yunnan to fulfill his son's wish by filming the Nuo opera "A Ride Along the Miles" performed by Li Jiamin. After a long journey to Yunnan, Takeda struggles to communicate with the locals and learns that Li Jiamin is in prison for committing a crime. It turns out that Li Jiamin has his own heartbreaking past with his son, which led to his conviction. Takeda, after much effort, finds Li Jiamin in prison and asks him to perform.
