Still Tomorrow plot

When one of her poems is shared more than a million times on Chinese social media, Xiuhua Yu is suddenly famous. The contrast with her old existence could hardly be greater. Yu has lived and worked all her life on her parents' humble farm. She is spastic due to congenital brain damage. Twenty years ago, her parents married her off to a worker who doesn't care about her. With fame comes financial freedom. Suddenly Xiuhua Yu can start thinking about a different future, free from her husband. In this portrait, filmed close to the skin, in which no one mince words, she is followed in the year of her breakthrough. Yu is painfully aware that life will never be easy for a disabled woman.
