Shu-Fen, a single mother, returns to Taipei with her two daughters after years away and plans to open a noodle stand in the bustling night market. The eldest daughter, Yi-An, works at a questionable convenience store and has a complicated relationship with her mother, while five-year-old Yi-Jing discovers a colorful world that becomes her playground. Hsi-Ching Tso’s film sensitively explores the relationship between mothers and daughters, the clash between traditions, and the struggle against fear within Taipei’s dazzling urban fabric.
