Synopsis:


    Zhouzhou is mentally handicapped. In his world, there are not complex manipulations of all kinds, but direct and simple feelings and expressions. Music is the source of his happiness.

    Zhouzhou's father is a musician in the Wuhan Symphony Orchestra. Zhouzhou often plays in the orchestra and in the groups of Peking Opera and Western Drama. He enjoys himself in the world of music and art. Touring with the groups, Zhouzhou joins them in every performance. Off the stage, Zhouzhou is as serious about the performance as the performers on the stage. Zhouzhou is not only a member of the groups but also a joy to everyone.

    Among these artistic groups, the symphony orchestra is Zhouzhou's favorite. The beautiful classical music makes him forget the stomachache and relieves the boredom. When Carmen, his favourite tune is played, Zhouzhou moves his hands up and down with the rhythm like a conductor. At this moment, he is the king of his musical world.

    This film records Zhouzhou's life for ten months. It reveals a world which is different, interesting, amazing and touching.
