A sick child came to the children’s hospital.
Not long after, another sick child came.

He was afraid of injections.
He was also afraid of injections.
He was afraid the other would say he wasn’t brave.
He was afraid the other would laugh at him.
In order not to be looked down upon by the other,
they competed to see who was braver.

In the hospital, they read books together,
painted using white bed sheets and jam,
hid from the nurses,
and sometimes loved playing pranks.
The hospital became their playground.
They forgot their pain and only had happiness.

On the day they were discharged,
they made a promise to meet again,
because you are my bestfriend.

You Are My Best Friend, following the chaos of home, Beijing Baxun invites audiences into another world — a hospital, where two sick children meet and forge an unforgettable bond. In You Are My Best Friend, both children fear injections, loneliness, and being judged. But as they compete to be brave, their fear gives way to laughter, adventure, and companionship. Together, they transform hospital corridors into playgrounds, create masterpieces from bedsheets and jam, and remind us all that true friendship can make even the hardest times joyful. A tender and playful exploration of resilience and connection, You Are My Best Friend celebrates the healing power of imagination and friendship.
