Yasujiro Ozu leisurely talks about the simplicity of a married life as a blessing with the taste of tea over rice, while Pengfei lightly describes the closeness of the mother-daughter hearts with the taste of rice flowers. A mother who worked in the city returned to a Dai village in Yunnan. Her daughter's problems were no different from those of all left-behind children: she was prone to lying, playing with her mobile phone, arguing with her classmates, going against her teachers, and stealing money from temples. The death of her daughter's close friend broke the ice. Mother and daughter walked into the deep stalactite cave, danced in front of the Buddha statue, mourned the spirits of the deceased, and also connected their souls. The differences between urban and rural areas, the collision of tradition and modernity, and the conflict between development and conservation are all resolved in poetic images and Zen-like insights. Just heat a pot of oil, fry a plate of rice flowers, and blend the sweetness, sourness, bitterness and spiciness of life into blessings for reunion.[Collapse]
