After eight years away, a young woman returns to Hong Kong, where her father lives partially. When he is suddenly hospitalized, what was meant to be a short visit turns into a period of caregiving and a confrontation with her deepest fear: losing her father.

SYNOPSIS

After discovering 40,000 Facebook posts left behind by her father, a young woman begins to piece together a quiet portrait of their distant relationship.

As she moves through these digital fragments, she reflects on the space between them, shaped by time, silence, and the tension of growing up between Chinese and Western cultures.

Led by the words written in her own childish Cantonese, a language she reaches for but doesn't fully command. She looks for a fragile attempt to reconnect. A tender exploration of lost identity and longing to belong.
