"Sudden Holiday" - another subversive female drama.
Among many domestic dramas, the play is unique and amazes the audience. While other dramas still promote women's independence on the surface, but in fact sell anxiety, this show is like a breath of fresh air, breaking the conventional framework. It does not deliberately set up the protagonist's struggle with fate, but advocates an attitude of conforming to nature and being at peace with what happens.
The heroine Liu Lian (played by Kan Qingzi), a 30-year-old unmarried woman, known as "Durian". She lost her father when she was a child, and she relied on her mother Liu Minzhi (played by Ni Hongjie) for her life.
One day, her mother died of a sudden heart attack, and Durian held her mother's ashes jar in a daze, wandering alone on the street, not knowing where to go. While trying to catch the bus home, she was hit by a surging crowd. Lying on the sun-drenched ground, she felt that it seemed good to lie like this. However, the shadow of her mother came to her mind, and her mother had told her, "If you fall, you will get up on your own." ”
Durian unexpectedly meets her friend and ex, Ning Yuan, who she hasn't seen for many years, downstairs. Ning Yuan caught a glimpse of the jar in her hand and asked curiously, "Is this a pickle?" ”
Durian chose to remain silent and did not confide in Ning Yuan about her predicament. She noticed that Ning Yuan was wearing a neat suit, and after learning that he was about to attend a wedding, she had a plan and decided to follow Ning Yuan to this meal. However, to her surprise, this meal actually reunited her with her best friend from her college days.
The wedding was a close friend from her college days, who had started a business together and had many wonderful times together. However, these two old friends ** the copyright of the illustration she created without her consent. Recalling that back then, the two couples were in love and sweet, and even made a promise to get married together in the future. Now that her boyfriend has left her, her friendship with her best friend has broken down, and she has become the least popular of the Gang of Four.
Durian tidied up her mother's room, and soon after, Yi Zuzhu moved in as a new tenant. For the convenience of her name, Durian affectionately gave her a nickname: Mangosteen.
Durian and mangosteen, like nostalgia and deletion, the balance between the two is thought-provoking. Which memories are worth remembering, and which past should be erased and started anew? During this unexpected holiday, Durian begins to try to reconcile with her mother and her past.
