In the 1980s tube apartment, Lin Jianguo, a state-owned enterprise worker, welcomed his cute daughter Xiaotang. Since then, he’s been the neighborhood’s famous “daughter slave”—when his mother pressured his wife to have a second child for a grandson, he stood firm to protect his family; when Xiaotang wanted a red dress from the mall, he saved his cigarette money to buy fabric and stayed up late learning to sew; even the apples from his unit were hidden for Xiaotang as snacks. But when SOE reform hit and Lin Jianguo faced layoff, his first worry wasn’t his job—it was whether he could still buy Xiaotang’s favorite fruit candies… Watch how this “daughter slave” dad uses clumsy yet passionate love to warm Xiaotang’s childhood into the softest light, and reveal the most touching family love of the 1980s.
