After undergoing labor reform, prisoner Li Huiquan (played by Jiang Wen) is released from prison and returns to the alley where he grew up. His old neighbor, Aunt Luo, takes good care of this lonely young man whose parents have passed away. Years ago, his buddy Chazi, upset that his girlfriend fell in love with someone else, dragged the loyal Li Huiquan along to teach that man a lesson, which unintentionally led to a death, resulting in both of them being imprisoned. Now, Chazi's family still holds a grudge against them, but only Chazi's younger brother thinks Li Huiquan is a real man. With the help of police officer Xiao Liu (played by Liu Bin), Li Huiquan later chooses to make a living by setting up a stall, during which he experiences the ups and downs of life. In the karaoke hall, Li Huiquan meets singer Zhao Yaqiu (played by Cheng Lin), and thereafter, he becomes her guardian. However, just as he decides to start a new life, he finds himself in an unforeseen predicament... This film is adapted from Liu Heng's novel "Black Snow" and won the Silver Bear at the 1990 Berlin Film Festival.
