Huiying (Sylvia Chang) intends to relocate her father’s grave from the countryside to the city, where he could be re-buried with her mother. However, her decision sparkles a conflict with Nana (Wu Yanshu), her father’s first wife. Huiying’s daughter, Weiwei (Lang Yueting), caught between her mother and Nana, is turning this family dispute into a reality show on TV, but after having spent some time with Nana, she learns a new understanding of life. In this bittersweet journey, these three women of different generations, each facing her own problems in her love life, follow their hearts and embrace each other’s perspectives on love.

外婆过世，母亲（张艾嘉）拉着父亲（田壮壮）四处奔走，执意要将外公的坟从乡下迁到城里，只盼二老同眠。姥姥（吴彦姝）是外公的原配，守着他的孤坟，一生等一个不归家的人；她眼角的褶皱里藏满执念，她打捞不起记忆里的那张脸。薇薇（郎月婷）夹在母亲和姥姥之间，最初把迁坟一事看作社会新闻，带着电视台的同事前去采访；却不察自己在与男友阿达（宋宁峰）的羁绊中，与她们二人同一般“执”。三代女性的爱与别离，三代男性的选择与承担，在一个家庭里绵绵铺开，繁而不乱，有张有弛，是为“相爱相亲”。
