15-year-old student Zhang Yishan has a big dream: to meet Jackie Chan one day and let him show him how to become an internationally acclaimed film and kung fu star. Of course, the boring Chinese lessons in his Indonesian hometown are no match for such a vision. Zhang Yishan's mild grandmother draws the consequences and sends the infatuated grandson to Beijing to the much stricter other grandmother. The only problem is that Jackie Chan is filming his new movie nearby. Zhang seizes the opportunity and sets off in search of his great role model, but encounters all kinds of obstacles along the way. Fang Gangliang's youth film revolves around the dreams and adolescent journey of its young protagonist, rather than the title character “Jackie Chan” himself. Nevertheless, the famous idol of many martial arts fans appears at three points in the film to show off his fighting skills and teach his young admirer respect and discipline. Even when fulfilling your big dreams, you should learn for life and school and respect your family. These are the key messages for Zhang and the young audience, who of course also get their money's worth when it comes to martial arts scenes! “If you don't give in to people and desires, your heart will never be broken. But then have you really lived?” --- “Life can knock us down, but we can decide whether we get up again.” (Wisdom of Jackie Chan)
