Synopsis: Suzhou is a city where the ancient and the modern co-exist. For more than 2,500 years, the city has passed down a large number of intangible cultural heritages, including lantern painting, nuclear carving, Song brocade, Ming furniture, boat dots, Suzhou embroidery, Xiangshan gang construction, woof silk and jade carving. The film tells the story of the past lives of these nine crafts and the tender stories that occur between the inheritors and their crafts from the perspective of 12 representative inheritors.
