Life (cycle) of the Hong Kong Newt (一生螈命)

Synopsis

A Hong Kong newt resides in a narrow irrigation channel, believing it would be confined there forever. However, an unexpected flood sweeps it away, carrying it through a dark passage until it arrives in a serene, azure pond. The newt finds companionship among its kind and thrived in the aquatic haven. But as it ventures back onto land after the breeding season, it encounters unforeseen threats.
