10-year-old Shi Tou, the son of a migrant laborer, grows up alone with his grandmother.
Sharing a reward with a classmate or waiting until his father returns, obeying his teacher or protecting his friend – which one should he choose?
A Chinese village deep in the countryside: home to 10-year-old Zhu Hongbo, whom everyone calls ‘Stonehead’. He is one of many children whose parents have moved to the big cities as migrant workers. With only their grandparents and a few teachers around, they have to find others to look up to – or become role models themselves. As a county model student, Stonehead receives not just a certificate, but also a brand-new football. Yet his joy at receiving this reward soon gives way to disappointment.
