Kun-cheng lives with his family on their poor but stable farm. When his wife dies suddenly in childbirth, he leaves the care of the farm and his children to his parents, and embarks upon an affair with a young widow. Several years pass in quiet discontent until Kun-cheng's mother suffers from a stroke; his daughter, a gifted student, stays at home to care for her grandmother, thus missing her educational opportunities. A Drifting Life suggests a vision of existence "as a process of drifting in the currents of fate, without hope or transcendent purpose." Godfrey Cheshire, Variety. Also on 10/27.
