This Cinderella retelling is set in rural China during the Ming Dynasty. Stepmother forces Xing Xing to work all day while she grooms her own daughter, Wei Ping, for marriage. This means binding Wei Ping’s feet, a painful ritual which Stepmother believes will make her more attractive to suitors. Xing Xing is sympathetic, but she is also lonely. A spiritual connection to her mother gives her the confidence to find happiness. Postscript.
