We Are Not Brothers (2020)

Other name: 我们不是兄弟呢 ; Wo Men Bu Shi Xiong Di Ne

Description:

Zu Bo, a dedicated young programmer in Beijing, leads a simple life focused on his code and studies from Bos mother’s home. His quiet routine is abruptly interrupted by a phone call from Bos mother, who announces the imminent arrival of his "third uncle" from their hometown, insisting he be received well. Despite having no recollection of this distant relative, Zu Bo dutifully heads to the station, even bringing a wheelchair, fully expecting an elderly guest.

However, the "third uncle" turns out to be a young man of Zu Bo's own age, a surprising twist of seniority. Initially resistant to this unexpected, youthful houseguest, Zu Bo’s guard drops completely when he discovers his "uncle" is also a programmer. Reluctantly at first, then with shared interest, he welcomes his unique relative home, setting the stage for a compelling cohabitation that challenges traditional family dynamics and fosters an unconventional bond.
