Plot

The Nuo Sacrifice is an ancient court ritual, passed down for thousands of years to pray for the people's safety and happiness. After being revived by Liukeng ancestor Dong Dunyi, it was decreed that women chosen as the grand Nuo could never marry. In the 1920s, Dong Chunnv was influenced by progressive ideas, and challenged these traditional constraints, leading to significant changes in her life.
