A boy experiences first love, friendships and injustices growing up in 1960s Taiwan.
Each member of a family in Taipei asks hard questions about life's meaning as they live through everyday quandaries. NJ is morose: his brother owes him money, his mother is in a coma, his wife suffers a spiritual crisis when she finds her life a blank and his business partners make bad decisions.
Amid a rapidly changing cityscape, the lives of a disparate group of swindlers, hustlers, gangsters, and expats collide, with a naive French teenager and a sensitive young local who tries to protect her caught dangerously in the middle.
Summer 1996. Days after finishing their national college entrance exams, teenagers Simao, Awai and Qiming crashed their car at dawn following a night out in Beihai - with passengers An'an and Xiaomei. Simao, the driver, hovered near death in ICU for three months while his grandmother and traumatized friends kept vigil. Unbeknownst to the comatose youth, two life-altering events occurred that summer: his long-absent mother visited secretly, and his college acceptance letter arrived. This coming-of-age story traces the trio's journey through guilt, confusion and fractured dreams in Simao's shadow. When he finally awakens three years later - his innocence preserved like a time capsule - his friends confront bittersweet truths: their struggles to outgrow teenage skins now mirror the very fractures that once bound them.
