Alice (Juno Temple) was the envy of her peers in her student days. Her appearance and talent gave her elders and friends reason to believe that a beautiful and successful future was waiting for her. However, it was not until she entered the real world that Alice discovered her innocence. After marrying John (Michael Angarano), the quality of their lives plummeted, and even the passing line was difficult to reach, let alone happiness. Just when Alice was in a dilemma, the appearance of a mysterious brass teapot completely changed her and John's lives. They found that this teapot could transform their pain into a steady stream of banknotes. It's not easy to feel pain. In this way, Alice and John began a long journey of "seeking pain" when they became rich, but as time went on, they found that the development of events gradually got out of their control.
