Lin Xiaoman guarded her grandfather's "Old Times" photo studio, staring at the dusty film camera and walls of old photos every day. She was about to close the shop and chase her dream in Shenzhen when a 1973 engagement photo from the bottom of her drawer suddenly went viral—In the photo, Grandma Zhang held a glass marble, Grandpa Li stood in front of the studio in a faded blue shirt, both smiling with deep wrinkles. It turned out Grandma Zhang had Alzheimer's and only remembered wanting to take their golden wedding photo at "Old Times". Netizens found Lin Xiaoman through the studio sign in the photo, and overnight, people from all over the country flocked in: a veteran looking for his first love, a girl wanting to take wedding photos for her deceased parents, a young mother replicating her mother's old pose with her child... Lin Xiaoman was so busy she could barely stand still. While sorting her grandfather's old things, she found an iron box—inside were unsent photos her grandfather took for "Aju", with the words "1968, I'll wait for you" on the back. Suddenly, she understood: her grandfather had kept the studio for a lifetime, waiting for someone who never returned. Now, Lin Xiaoman decided to stay, using her grandfather's old camera to help more people "reclaim" the time they missed.
