Summary "Wujinshi Village has a distinctive green color, but it also has poverty that is difficult to escape. Here live three generations of women of the Yang family. Li Yuejiao took advantage of the darkness and ran away twice, but both times she came back by herself, for the sake of the children Agui and Ayi. When her mother-in-law was young, she ran away three times in ten years. Because she was sure that no matter how beautiful the landscape was, she couldn't stay "poor", so she watched her daughter-in-law carefully and controlled the home. Ah Zhu, from Vietnam, keeps defending himself with lies, but returning to his hometown won't happen. "Covered Bridge" is not only the central landmark, but also the core image, which connects history, present and future. This is a thought-provoking masterpiece of realism." -- Cataloger's translation and interpretation of the Chinese synopsis
