A well made heartwarming film, interspersed with a whimsical undertone and aptly curated scores. I am searching for similar pieces but at the moment would kind of place it like a feel-good outdoorsy The Office in a different cultural setting. I thought the english translation of the title could be renamed a little better as its namesake is a popular Chinese novel; despite the characters making appearance in the film and the train journey west from beijing to chengdu. Glad to see that it has won several awards and accolades. The director of photography a did a good job in capturing south-western china.
