Homesickness is something that can’t be seen and touched, yet it is something specific and concrete. Sometimes, for a person who has been far away from his home for a long time, a homemade delicacy can arouse his homesickness. In the “Voice of the Nation”, his mom often cooked a bowl of rice noodle for Nie Er when he came back at night, which was full of a mom’s love for a son. 

Through these Yunnan delicacies, the film director shows the homesickness of the protagonist after he left his hometown for study in other places.
