Synopsis: In his previous life, he was her husband. In this life, he is her grandson. He is the same person.
In his previous life, she was his wife. In this life, she is his grandmother.
She is the same person.
This year they are one hundred years old,. They live under the same roof.
The film shows the real life of a Tibetan nomad family, how the head of the family was reincarnated within the same household, and two different lives with his "wife". His wife cares for him just as before, but there are also voices of dissent. In the new life in front of him, he feels lost but he also has his own voice. This year their combined age is one hundred years.

Director's Note: This is not a story but a true episode in my family. I'm not relating my grandfather's magical life, I'm just honestly showing a herdsman's new life. Her life is hard, but she is also content. In their one hundred years, some things changed, some things remained the same. But this is their true life, one that may continue for another hundred years.
