Plot

An incident on the playground brings together two high school boys who are from worlds apart: the outgoing and candid Wei, and the quiet, yet observant Shuo. As their friendship evolves, Wei introduces Shuo to his father, a cell biologist, and his mother, a former flight attendant. Recognizing Shuo comes from a broken home, the Wei’s family welcomes this enigmatically charming and underprivileged kid into their lives.
Gradually integrating himself into the Wei’s lives, Shuo discovers that the family’s middle-class existence is clouded by unspoken secrets, unmet expectations, and untended emotions. An incident further complicates their lives in unexpected ways, putting past wounds and present anxieties under the microscope.
