Fei's mountain village's only link to the outside world is a zipline that carries precious metals down the mountain and food back up. The villagers have been deaf for generations, but Fei's hearing has miraculously returned. Themes of romantic love, family, loyalty, and equality play out powerfully against the backdrop of Chinese folklore as Fei seeks to save her people.
