Synopsis: A new transfer student, Lin Xiangzhi (Angel Zhao), who is quiet and smart but always alone, doesn’t make friends with other students. However, she attracts the attention of Xu Youshu (Lin Yi), a boy considered to be the troublemaker of the class. Along with the eccentric Song Xiaonan (Shen Yue) and the cool-headed Jiang Wu (Wang Jiahui), he discovers Lin’s secret – she suffers from a special disease that means her memory of her friends only lasts for seven days. In order to help this lonely girl, the trio form a “doomsday survival” team to create surprises for Lin and remind her of her memories. Unbeknownst to them though, there is an even sadder secret behind Lin Xiangzhi’s illness… [© Far East Films]
