Viv, a Chinese artist wannabe, got stuck in Berlin after the pandemic and accidentally ventured into the vibrant alternative culture scene. To someone who was raised to follow “the standard”, everything seems so exciting. But to her family in China, the most alarming question surfaces: “why is she such an oddball?” Drifting between new environments and traditional expectations, Viv is constantly adapting to shifting opinions about herself, the world, and of course, China, only to feel more lost than ever.
