Wu Hongyan is a female bailiff in a regional court of the industrial western provinces. Her grim job has not hardened her, even after years of dealing with women awaiting execution - more often than not, sentenced for crimes of passion. Every weekend, the 30-something unmarried woman makes a long train ride to the city for the Good Luck Matchmaking dance. Her romantic encounters end up forgettable and unfulfilling.
