In a totalitarian world where male chauvinism reigns, a female high-heeled shoe named Mulan Hua rebels against the oppressive baby shoe factory to protect her daughter from being forcibly transformed into a male shoe. Forced to raise her child alone, she disguises herself as a male sturdy shoe and works tirelessly in a capitalist cigarette factory, enduring exploitation and hiding her true identity.
