We Will Grow Old Together is a true expression of intimacy by director Wen Ye, condensing memories in the night. Darkrooms, living rooms, cloakrooms, bedrooms, everything in the room witnessed their past. Incarnate and slice every night to restore the truest love.
Chen Jianxia (played by Sun Qian), a girl who lived in a patriarchal environment since she was a child, longs to escape from the oppressive family. She is admitted to Zhenhua Middle School, where she meets the rebellious but kind-hearted boy Li Ran (played by Zhang Xincheng). Li Ran becomes the only light in her life. She is like a forgotten spaceship in the universe, and he is the only answer in the radio that has been silent for many years.
