Synopsis
Spoiler shield
At a prestigious Beijing university, Weichen prepares for his first sexual encounter under the pressures of inflated expectation and nightmarish anxieties surrounding his mother. Set within the world of the post-'90s generation of Chinese youth, BURROW is a dark coming-of-age story about the paralyzing nature of self-doubt about the primal responses we have to our fear of failure.
“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
