Amoayi, a girl from an ordinary Yi ethnic family in Xiaoliangshan, dropped out of school after just one year. When members of an educational support task force conduct in-depth visits to local households, they uncover the challenges that have kept Amoayi from returning to school. But one problem leads to another, as deeper systemic issues affecting older students emerge from the past.
Amoayi, once a top-performing student—can she return to school after so many years? Meanwhile, the construction of the “Tonghua Excellence Class” is underway, aiming to give students like her another chance.
