- Synopsis
- Mei (Huang Lu) has never been further than five miles away from her native village in China. But an unusual combination of fate, curiosity and natural restlessness soon changes that. Looking for excitement and new adventures, she first arrives in Chong-qing. Life in the big city doesn't quite turn out as expected, however; fired from her factory job, she ends up working in a hair salon, where she meets and falls in love with Spikey (Wei Yi Bo), a gangster with a dragon tattoo. She knows he's a hit man with the mafia, so when one day he comes back covered in blood and dies in her arms, Mei must leave town, her dreams shattered. London is the city that unpleasantly greets this illegal immigrant. A new language, bland food and an unfamiliar set of rules now broaden her horizons, but the future is an enticing unknown.
