The film opens in Kuala Lumpuer with a street wizard handing out winning lottery numbers for money. The ever silent Hsiao-kang has a number but no money. He proceeds to get beaten by the street performer and his cronies. Left to die on the street, he is picked by a group of Bangladeshi's migrant workers. One of the workers, Rawang (Norman Atun), nurses him back to health and slowly finds himself making space in his life for Hsiao-kang. Hsiao meanwhile finds himself attracted to a Chinese waitress (Shiang-chyi Chen) in the neighbourhood. As the film winds down, smog envelopes the city, its citizen and the viewer.Rating: +
