Overview:	Old Zhao, in his 50's, is a poor migrant worker slaving away in Shenzhen. When his friend and co-worker Old Liu dies unexpectedly, Old Zhao decides to bring the dead home. He pretends his companion is just a passed-out drunk, boards a cross-country coach, and meets a band of armed robbers. Old Zhao tells them to kill him first to take his dead friend's compensation. The robbers moved by his loyalty and leave the bus. Instead of thanking him, the passengers kick Old Zhao and his dead friend off. Now on the side of the road, Old Zhoa tries to flag down a car, prentedning Old Liu needs to get to a hospital. After spending a night at a hotle, Old Zhao finds his traveling money has been stolen. He breaks down and weeps. Nevertheless, Old Zhao's determination is not to be shaken. When he needs money, he uses Old Liu's corpse to pose as a beggar. When he needs to eat, he cries at a stranger's funeral to get a free meal. When he needs to hide Old Liu's death spots, he finds a sympathetic prostitute who puts make up on Old Liu. Along the odyssey, Old Zhao meets many different types of Chinese people. When he finally arrives in Old Liu's hometown, it's been turned into a dam. The entire village is now deep underwater. Old Zhao sits down and recalls a scene that occurred not long ago before Old Liu's death…
