Three thirty-year-old friends reunite in Beijing after nearly 10 yearsapart. They used to be free-wheeling rock-and-rollers without a care in theworld, but now, after tasting their own variation of freedom in new China, theyare tormented by how unforgiving and unglamorous life had become. Nothing at alllike the fame and fortune they dreamed about as kids.
After comparingstories of disappointment over beers, they are reminded of how much youththey’ve lost when a group of kids torments them into a brawl. Re-energized by the encounter, they decide to reform the band and this time takeover the world. But reality gets in the way when one of them finds out hisfamily is going to be evicted along with their whole neighborhood due to shadygovernment zoning. Putting their dreams aside to fight for their rightfulproperty, they find themselves in a violent uprising pitting neighborhoodresidents against police and bulldozers... And when the heat gets turned up highenough, fuses are bound to be lit...
A story of youthful dreams clashing withthe reality of adulthood, set against the backdrop of modern China.
