Description: The remarkable tale of one Chinese girl's journey to find a home of her own.
Synopsis: When another girl is born to Chu Ju's mother, it is quickly determined that the baby must be sent away.

Fourteen-year-old Chu Ju knows she cannot allow her sister to be sent to an orphanage and so she sets out in the middle of the night, vowing never to return.
