The movie is based on the reportage of a number of incidents of babies being carried by mistake in Japan in the 1970s, and tells the story of two Japanese families who are suddenly caught in a family ethical dilemma when they learn that their six-year-old child was born in the wrong hospital.
This kind of incident is too cruel for these two families, and if it were me, I would certainly not be able to bear such a blow of fate. The old woman in the movie says that the gift of nurturing is greater than the gift of giving birth, and the movie doesn’t give an easy or clear-cut answer to their choice of this cruel incident, but there is a good line in the movie that says, “You don’t have to be like your father “.
Everyone has their own personality and choices, every family has their own ways and philosophies, the important thing is to respect and understand each other, to love and be loved with all your heart, so that you can feel the most real and beautiful things in life – family and love.
The most disgraceful part of the movie is the nurse who intentionally carries the wrong child, just because she envies other people’s happiness, she even does such a heartless thing, and after five years of legal recourse, she can not even go to jail, which is really shameful.

Is it the preciousness of spending time with each other, or the importance of the ties that bind them by blood? Faced with the consequences of a small misunderstanding years ago, Ryota and Midori are at a loss as to what to do.
For Yuudai, Yukari and their illegitimate child Ryuharu Saiki (Huang Shengxuan), they are also at a crossroads in their lives.
