The survival instincts of a road-tripping family are put to the test when they have no other choice but to stay the night at a remote homestead.

In 1991, a grieving Korean family immigrate to the Canadian prairies to help cull the troubling population of feral dogs, but must confront their own personal trials and tribulations.

While struggling on a solo backpacking trip in Thailand, social media influencer Madison meets CW, who travels with ease and shows her a more uninhibited way of living. But CW's interest in her takes a darker turn.

In 2005, aspiring singer Nathan enters a controversial Asian male beauty pageant in Richmond hoping for his big break. An innocent lie catapults him into overnight fame — and suddenly, the whole city is watching! Taken under the wing of Justice, a fiery upstart producer grasping for the next big thing, a reluctant Nathan buries the lie and enters the pageant circuit alongside a rag-tag team of fellow competitors, navigating an improbable mission of turning skeptical public opinion to their side. But when pageant executives catch wind of Nathan’s secret, his star status becomes a weapon for consolidating power. With the finale looming and the lie unraveling, Nathan and his peers must decide - submit to the fame machine, or risk it all to stay true to themselves.

When Kamal’s adult son introduces a 3D food-printing appliance into their home, it shatters her maternal identity and forces her to go on a journey to heal old wounds, rediscover herself, and literally battle the machine.
