Plot
The film follows the parallel stories of Chen Mei-Li (Rene Liu), a middle-class suburban girl from a materialistic dysfunctional family, and the shyer, more introverted Ling Mei-li (Jing Tseng), a working-class girl being raised by her father and grandmother in a ramshackle home on the outskirts of town.
