In the original novel, the protagonist, Guerre, is a boy. But in "Drifting with the Wind", the protagonist is a mother and daughter who rely on each other in a traditional Tibetan village. They continue to grow up under the blows of human warmth and worldly ideas, and eventually transform into independent women who no longer need to rely on others.

The film not only shows the natural and humanistic features of traditional Tibetans, but also focuses on the realization of Tibetan women's self-worth in social development. Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and President of Emei Film Group Xiang Huaquan expressed the hope that through the film, the unique Tibetan customs and traditions will be promoted to the world as part of Chinese culture, and fully demonstrate the profound and diversified integration of China's culture.
The director revealed that the reason for changing the protagonist to a woman is because few film and television works use Tibetan women as the protagonists of the narrative.

The director also said that his next film will also continue to focus on female themes.
