Wan Renle, a man in his sixties in Taipei, becomes eccentric after buying an old record, leading to hallucinations about reuniting with a former lover. His daughter, Wan Jinjin, admits him to a hospital, where she learns of his secret romance with Tong Shuizhu, a Beijing drum singer. Renle goes missing, and Jinjin finds him in Tianjin, discovering he was searching for Shuizhu, who is her biological mother and has passed away. Jinjin arranges a meeting with a woman posing as Shuizhu, but Renle recalls Shuizhu’s suicide. Back in Taipei, Renle is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and Jinjin continues to help him regain his memories.
