A family memory connects three generations of women, all of whom, in one way or another, have had to deal with separations in their lives. Laotaitai's husband died in the foreign land, leaving her a coat with his property. She never remarries ever since. In the local folklore，a woman is imprisoned and her grievance becomes the clouds in the mountains. This film mixes non-fiction and fiction storytelling through visualizing ancient Chinese poetry and cultural symbols and a voiceover transcending time and space to express the grief of parting.
