Drifting

The film follows Yan, an illegal second child born under China's One-Child policy. To evade government repercussions, Yan's parents concealed their oldest daughter in the countryside while raising Yan as a girl. This background sets the stage for Yan's journey into adulthood, where he grapples with his gender identity and experiences alienation in a conservative society.

Yan finds solace in an unconventional way, drifting his father's old taxi through abandoned parking lots. This act symbolizes his desire for freedom and escape from the constraints imposed by his family and society. The film's exploration of LGBT themes and the impact of the One-Child policy provides a critical lens on contemporary issues in China.
