Storyline:  At Beijing’s World Park, a theme park featuring replicas of global landmarks, life behind the spectacle is far from glamorous. Through the experiences of dancer Tao and security guard Taisheng, the film explores isolation, fragile relationships, and the quiet struggles of workers whose lives contrast with the park’s glittering façade.
