Synopsis

Ah Fen (Chen Hsiang-chyi) waits anxiously in Taipei for her brother Chuen-sheng's (Lee Kang-sheng) return home from military service. But he seems ready to resume his vacant, aimless lifestyle: he steals money from his father's house, then spends it on a sequence of seedy flop houses and prostitutes, while half-heartedly trying to get work as a saxophone player. Ah Fen, meanwhile, develops a phone relationship of sorts with a young prostitute, Meili.
