一个移居美国的京剧师傅在舞台上忘了词，他的女徒弟带着中美混血的儿子带他去海滩散心。在旅途中，师傅的思绪在熟悉的徒弟和始终陌生，无法辨认的徒弟儿子之间游离，被演出梦境和过去记忆搅扰。 An old Chinese immigrant went blank on his lines and walked off the stage during a Peking Opera performance. His female protege and her half-Chinese son, take him for a beach picnic. During the trips, wandering between his familiar student and the strange, unrecognizable son, the elder's mind is repeatedly haunted by dream-like memories of the performance and his past life.
