2008年，中国四川汶川发生“5•12大地震”，导致近7000栋校舍倒塌。
其中学生死亡比例最大的学校——绵竹市富新镇第二小学被指“豆腐渣工程”，全校309名学生中，共126人遇难。事故以来，126个破碎家庭的代表先后4次赴京上访，要求当局追述有关工程的负责人，但一直没有结果。
如今离那场灾难过去已经近3年，部分幸运的家庭也孕育了新的生命，现在伤痛有没有随着时间有所愈合？他们一路如何走来？
2009年末，我们进入富新镇，开始了为期22天的追访和拍摄，由于非常的状况，大部分的采访不得不在半夜进行。
我们把镜头对准遇难者家属，聆听他们被禁声的故事

Filmed over 17 years across Southern China, this remarkable film is an intimate and heart-wrenching portrait of Li Ermao, a transgender migrant worker, who performs in clubs looking for love and acceptance. Living as a “ladyboy” with a string of boyfriends, she faces repeated encounters of prejudice and aggression with equal measures of resilience and vulnerability. With a flair for the dramatic and her budding career as a popstar, Ermao’s story takes many dramatic twists and surprising turns as she moves between the urban and the rural, searching for identity and fighting for a better life.
