Shot with a sense of deadpan comedy, the film's ingenious conceit is to hitch its storytelling to Xiaobin's progress in language learning: as she learns new tenses in Spanish class, her narrative expands in parallel, moving from the past, to the present, to finally, the conditional future of the film's title, which allows her to vividly imagine the possible paths her life might take.
