Set in the milieu of contemporary China, The Sighing Me crafts a narrative centered around a young individual who was born in the 90s. Devastated by mediocre income, burden of a loan for a house left incomplete by the real estate developer, and the diminish of dreams, the protagonist finally decides to leave the city where his hope once lay and return to his hometown in the countryside.

 

Di heavily explores themes of disillusionment and anxiety that resonate with many young Chinese people today who also struggle for success amidst societal expectations and question the purpose of hardworking, showcasing the inner turmoil of a generation caught between traditional values and modern challenges.
