Summary:

"Mr. Lee is 93, born in the early part of the 20th-century in the South of China. Coming from a modest peasant background, he has been a self-taught, independent soul all his life. He has managed to repeatedly reinvent himself, enabling him to live a varied and colorful existence. After 93 years, Lee wants to reconnect to his roots. But as he returns to his native village, his 8 sons and daughters from his peasant past are not pleased. They are quick to remind him that he abandoned them. On top of which he disgraced the family by appearing nude, as a model, in front of young students at arts school: according to them, this is something incompatible with 'decent living.' Although he is their father, he cannot be part of their family anymore. So, in his ninth life, he has to confront prejudice again, just as before. But as always, he remains true to himself."--Container.
