A symphony of the ordinary life of the "little people" following a group of people sharing a house in Shanghai.

The unemployed university student, the woman who is forced to sell herself, the primary school teacher who can barely make ends meet, the old newspaper vendor whose son died in the war, all these people live under one "roof" in Shanghai, a symphony of the ordinary life of the "little people".

With English subtitles.
