The literal translation of the title of this movie is: the Footsteps of Youth.
This movie actually presents a relatively new fresh look for the Chinese movie industry in that there is far less political propaganda in this film in comparison to other films of its era, and furthermore, this movies describes something that is common in the interpersonal relationships, such as rocky relationship with boyfriend/girlfriend, founding what one believed to be true love, but what turned out is often not what one was dreamed about. Sounds very familiar? Of course, because it is common topic in Hollywood. This movie brought out the fact that people are all the same, despite the ethnic, racial, or political difference, we all face the similar problems in our interpersonal relationships.
