In the remote northeast of England, there is a small town called Rearstone. Angela and Buck live here as a couple. In 1999, when the first snow of the cold winter fell, Buck contracted a growing illness and ended up in the hospital.

  After Old Buck was hospitalized, neighbors came to visit from time to time. Once, Angela was embarrassed to find that the conditions of the hospital were so rudimentary that the guests didn't even have stools to sit on. So, she came up with the idea of donating sofas. But as a low-income household with no income, the subsidy on weekdays has stretched them thin, let alone taking out a sum of money to do good deeds. "Where are you going to raise money?" Angela worried about this.

  One night, the light comedy "Six Heroes of Light Pig" was playing on TV. The story is about the hilarious experience of six steel workers who go to a nightclub to dance *** on a whim after losing their jobs. This hilarious plot suddenly ignited the spark of Angela's thinking. "Yes! I can also learn from their ideas!" The elderly Angela suddenly lit up and was overjoyed. Of course, she wouldn't dance ***. After thinking about it, she finally decided to make a nude calendar to sell. The next morning, she found 10 old sisters and told them her thoughts one by one. 10 old people were moved by her true feelings and agreed with this bold and simple idea.

  Then, they began to implement the plan step by step. In a big room, 11 old grandmothers took off their clothes. At this time, the ** of their companions was unobstructed. Under the carving of the knife of time, the charm of the girl's age has long been gone, replaced by a stooped figure, dull and loose skin, sagging breasts... But they firmly believe that these are not serious problems, the important thing is that they have a fiery love. When shooting, they chose a number of different scenes: making cider, playing the piano, mending clothes... After taking more than ten photos, they made a calendar with a computer, and then delivered it to the printing house for printing. Then, Angela and her sisters set up street stalls to sell them, priced at £8 each. Many people stopped to watch out of curiosity. They were moved by the warm life scenes on the calendar, and when they saw the cover that said "Please give a love", they did not hesitate to shell out the money to buy it. In just one week, the first 5,000 copies were all sold out. After that, 10,000 copies were urgently printed, but they were snapped up again. By the end of March 2000, more than 200,000 copies of the "Naked Calendar" had been sold through various channels such as supermarkets, shopping malls, convenience stores, and the Internet! This greatly exceeded their expectations. With this money, Angela bought dozens of leather sofas for the small hospital and donated the rest to the International Committee of the Red Cross.

  However, just as the good news came frequently, misfortune happened: Buck suffered from a blood disease called non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The condition was uncontrollable, and the treatment eventually failed and died! The sudden death of her husband made Angela fall into the abyss of grief. But two days later, she came out of the haze. Because she understands that only living strong is the best way to pay homage to her wife. Next, she and 10 old sisters successively released the second and third volumes of the "Naked Calendar". They became famous day by day, and the calendar has been exported to the United States, Canada and many other countries. Later, Hollywood director Nigel Cole made a movie "Calendar Pretty Woman" on this theme. After the film was released, it was widely acclaimed and was nominated for a Golden Globe.

  On June 1, 2005, at the invitation of the Queen, 11 "Grandma Calendar" came to Clawrence Palace. This is a celebration party specially held for them by the British royal family. In the banquet speech, Crown Prince Charles said affectionately: I am the most loyal fan of "Grandma Calendar", and I am sincerely proud to have such people in my country! Faced with such a prestigious reputation, Angela and her old friends couldn't help but cry.

  In May 2009, after years of silence, Angela stepped into the public eye again. This time, she plans to re-shoot a full-color "nude calendar". The funds raised are used to establish a blood research institute to free mankind from the torture of such diseases as soon as possible. In an interview on the "Tonight Show" program, she said: My actions have also attracted a lot of criticism, but I have never cared about any gossip. All I know is that this is no longer a simple personal act, but a cause that benefits the public. Shooting "Naked Calendar" will continue with my life... Angela's words won her more understanding and support. The new version of the calendar is not yet on the market, but a large number of orders have arrived like snowflakes.

  Yes, it is undeniable that in this world, there is a kind of nudity and eroticism that has nothing to do with it. It is a skylight of humanity, through which the radiance of selflessness, holiness and perfection shines directly on people's faces; it becomes a warm current, flowing through the increasingly paralyzed nerves of the world, to the deepest part of the soul.
