Other name:

Description:

"Journey to the West" introduces us to Tang Zhijun, an aging man whose unwavering belief in alien life forms remains steadfast despite constant disappointment. Every reported UFO sighting proves false, and hours spent scrutinizing TV static yield no hidden messages. His passion, though, fuels a struggling space exploration magazine that he desperately tries to keep afloat, often having to beg for funds.

Despite widespread skepticism and financial strain, Tang Zhijun refuses to abandon his lifelong conviction. Fueled by a profound, almost defiant hope, he decides to take matters into his own hands. Embarking on a perilous, self-funded expedition, this "Journey to the West" becomes his ultimate quest. He heads into the vast unknown, driven by an unshakeable determination to finally make contact and prove to the world that humanity is not alone, staking everything on this audacious, final mission.
