A pair of sisters moving from Hunan to Hong Kong in the 90s are faced with identity crisis, poverty and their addict father.
来自湖南的新移民圆圆及妹妹两个人在香港成长,两姊妹除了面对身份认同、贫穷外,还有一个更大的命题:一个长年吸毒的父亲...


Yuen moves to Hong Kong with her mother from Hunan at the age of 8 to reunite with her father. Everything in the city is dazzling and new to her. However, the family face poverty and a cultural barrier. Worse still, the father has a drug habit and has a difficult relationship with the family. This certainly is not the dream home Yuen has been looking forward to. All she wants is that her younger sister could reunite with them
as soon as possible.
Out of fear, the sisters try to appease their father in their younger years. As soon as they reach adolescence, they start to resist and escape from him. However, even after they grow up and move away from him, Yuen realizes all the people she loves and treasures resemble her father in her childhood memories.


来自湖南的新移民圆圆及妹妹两个人在香港成长,两姊妹除了面对身份认同、贫穷,还有一个更大的命题:一个长年吸毒的父亲。

从小父亲若即若离,喜怒无常,又时常因坐牢突然消失,使两姐妹长期处于不安。小时候她们还会讨好父亲,中学她们掌握了话语权开始反抗、挣扎、逃离。长大后本以为可以彻底挣脱父亲,却发现自己喜欢的所有人事,原来都带着父亲的影子,都与童年的某个回忆有关...。
