Description:
In the late 1950s, Shanghai. The district leadership decides to open a people's school in Hepingli and invites middle school student Xiu Hua (Hong Xia) and Gu San-Juan (Sha Li), who learned to read and write after Liberation, to serve as teachers. Once the decision is announced, many are baffled by it — even the neighborhood's director of culture and education (Qi Heng) thinks they cannot run a school. San-Juan, aware of her own limited education, does not lose heart: she hires Zhao Ling (Sun Jing-Lu), a graduate of a teachers' college, to strengthen the faculty. Show more Xiu Hua and Zhao Ling have a serious quarrel over the punishment of a mischievous student, Yao A-Gen (Chen Shi-Nan), and both throw up their hands and quit. San-Juan's quiet influence moves them, and teaching at the school gradually gets on track. Before long, A-Gen gets into a fight with his classmate Dabao, who had spoken ill of the teachers, and runs away. San-Juan searches for him through the rain all night. When she finds A-Gen at a construction site and learns the reason, San-Juan is deeply affected.
