The city is no longer the same after the year of social unrest. How do those that remain make peace with the past and move on with their lives? After Nam’s good friend Man left the city, Nam is left behind to take care of Man's mother and motor bike, while struggling to live life as normal. A strange visitation one night by her grandfather brings Nam back to her ancestral village in mainland China, where she learns about her father’s painful past. Under the silent and long poetic gaze of the camera, the survivors of two generations, representing the past and the present, the country and the city, commiserate together in a shared moment of grief and solidarity.

Performance artist Florence and documentary filmmaker Tze-woon are lovers. They propose to exchange each other’s distressing memories before they met and attempt to re-enact each other’s experience with their own art form. Could they really walk closer towards each other through the process?
