A young Burmese girl, Lien Ching, smuggles herself in a truck heading for Bangkok, Thailand, aiming to pursue a better life, and eventually even go to Taiwan for better opportunities. In Bangkok, she meets A Kuo, a boy from the same Burmese hometown Lashio, who is less ambitious but pragmatic and has a crush on her.
Lacking proper identification, Liang struggles to find legitimate work and gets arrested as an illegal immigrant by the Thai authorities. She is fined and has to rely on A Kuo's help. Lien Ching becomes desperate to obtain legal paperwork, even if it is fraudulent.
After several failed attempts on the papers and losing money, she finally accepts a solution offered by a drug dealer who requires a huge sum of money. In order to collect the amount, Lien Ching prostitutes herself. This act enrages A Kuo, who has been supporting her.
