Synopsis

The Shao family has been singing Laoqiang for many generations; it is a style of aria typical in the Yellow river area. In 1921, the family adopts an abandoned baby they found near the river and named him Baimao. Baimao develops a strong interest and talent for the Laoqiang tradition while Xiaohua, the only biological son in the Shao, has no interest in learning how to sing Laoqiang. Therefore, the Shao family is placed into a huge dilemma: should they break tradition by making Baimao the heir?
