But lawyer Zhang Tong, a longtime advocate for women’s rights, refuses to give up on her. Through interviews with family, colleagues, and in-laws, Zhang uncovers a hidden history of domestic violence, infidelity, and psychological torment. As layers of lies and trauma are peeled back, the film reveals how a perfect marriage turned deadly—and delivers a powerful reflection on violence, resilience, and female strength.
