This is a poetic and heart-warming Chinese folk tale. In a Chinese village, Bamboo, a single farmer, falls in love with a peasant girl, Ming, and soon they are married. To celebrate the wedding, the newlyweds plant a grove of bamboo. When Bamboo goes to the New World to seek his fortune, his sister-in-law, Jin, makes life a misery for Ming, taking the best part of the fields, the water buffalo and most if the tolls for her own family. How is Ming able to till the land and make the fields flourish all on her own? And, will Bamboo ever return safely from across the ocean?
