Sinopse

Curious to learn more about her (Matsuyuki Yasuko), he ends up staying to work at her restaurant. As the two grow closer over time, an ambiguous relationship develops, not quite mother and son, not quite lovers.
A couple (Zhang Jingsheng & Lu Liping) robbed the money train for money, causing a canister truck carrying highly toxic drugs to leak gas and eventually burn through the ozone layer. At the same time, the boy (Zhang Ning) who was resting at home due to his illness suddenly found that he could understand the language of his good friend, Big White Cat. The big white cat told him that this serious accident, if not stopped in time, the living things on the earth will eventually perish. However, adults are so busy running for money that they do not believe what boys and animals say.
Set in the Taisho era, which might be regarded as Japan's Hippie Phase, Hana no ran is a story about fashionable people without impulse control. Much of the action centers on a popular woman writer, the real-life poet Akiko Yosano, and her experiences among the literati of early 20th century Japan. Because of her independent, anti-war and often erotic poetry, she was a lightning rod for revolutionaries and other extremists, many of whom were destined to glamorous, yet ultimately pointless, deaths. The closest parallels might be the Byron/Shelley group or the people drawn to the Beat Generation.
