Synopsis

In China, on average, every 7.4 seconds, a woman becomes a victim of domestic violence. Xu Min, who appears strong and independent, holds a difficult-to-discuss secret: she has been enduring long-term domestic abuse from her husband, Chen Jun. Xu Min doesn't fit the image of a typical victim as she is resilient, brave, and has her own career.

During the challenging process of trying to divorce her husband with the help of lawyer Li Xiaomeng, she faces difficulties dealing with her husband, who is careful not to leave any evidence, and the cold words, mockery, and doubts from people around her. She also encounters a lack of action from the social system and has to consider her two children.

When divorce is not the end of domestic violence, and when the home itself becomes a violent storm instead of a safe haven, can she break free from this tempest?
