The film is based on Jiang Wanfu, a national moral model winner. It tells the story of Jiang Wanfu, who traveled from Shanghai to the foot of the Kunlun Mountains, used his passionate heart for the frontier herdsmen and relied on his superb medical skills to successfully perform more than 2,000 medical and surgical operations in 43 years. People of all ethnic groups call it the touching story of the angel in white on the back of a donkey.

2023 is the 70th anniversary of the establishment of Shanghai Film Actors Troupe. In March, the movie "Father Is Far Away" started shooting in Yingjisha, Xinjiang. Almost all Han characters in the film were played by actors from the Shanghai Film Actors Troupe. Tong Ruixin, member of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai CPPCC, member of the Citizens' Clan Committee, and director of the Shanghai Film Actors Troupe, plays Jiang Wanfu. Zhao Jing and Zhao Yali play the elderly and middle-aged wives of Jiang Wanfu, Wang Weiwei plays Jiang Wanfu's daughter, and Lin Lin, Sun Qing, He Genqier, and others star in friendship.
What is particularly rare is that "former member of the Shanghai CPPCC, winner of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Lifetime Achievement Award" and senior performing artist of the Shanghai Film Actors Troupe, Da Shichang went to Xinjiang to participate in the filming of the film regardless of his age. They used creative methods to add color to the troupe's 70th birthday. In the words of team leader Tong Ruixin, "It is of course our duty as Shanghai filmmakers to photograph the people who aided construction in Shanghai and the role models of Shanghai." He still remembers what Jiang Wanfu often said - "People should have ideals, pursuits, and goals while living. The spirit of doing something for society is worth it, which cannot be measured by money. I am proud to have the experience of Kunlun Mountain in my life,” Tong Ruixin said: “We at Shanghai Film Academy are also proud of what we can do. I am proud of the experience of participating in the creation of "Father is Far Away" under the Kunlun Mountains! "
The director of the film Yan Gaoshan comes from Tianshan Film Studio. During the early communication, Tong Ruixin and him hit it off and quickly made a "Kunlun appointment". Yan Gaoshan also feels that it is a precious creative opportunity to collaborate with artists from the Shanghai Film Actors Troupe. In order to enter Jiang Wanfu's spiritual world, Tong Ruixin visited Jiang Wanfu's wife Zhao Junhua before going to Xinjiang to learn about Jiang Wanfu's most real side and life details. After arriving in Xinjiang, Tong Ruixin went to the Corps Health Center where Jiang Wanfu had studied to experience life. Doctors who had worked with Jiang Wanfu all said in the exchange that this Shanghainese was great and they all remembered his appearance. At the premiere event, Jiang Wanfu's wife Zhao Junhua and their daughter also came to the CPPCC auditorium and expressed their sincere gratitude to the filmmakers for their dedication and presentation.
