Cai Hua Da Dao plot

Portrait of a couple of traveling beekeepers, who travel 10,000 kilometers each year from south to north China and back again, depending on where the flowers are in bloom. Due to their nomadic existence, Chen Aimin and Zhou Fengxia lead an isolated life, worrying about caring for Aimin's disabled brother and their small child who can barely play with other children. The daily routine consists of work with the bees, an afternoon nap, washing, eating and repair work in and around a hut made of wooden poles and a tarp.
