A wry, observational indie mystery that uses a missing-person plot as a vehicle to explore Chinese-American identity, assimilation, and community fragmentation in 1980s San Francisco.

Two cabbies search San Francisco's Chinatown for a mysterious character who has disappeared with their $4000. Their quest leads them on a humorous, if mundane, journey which illuminates the many problems experienced by Chinese-Americans trying to assimilate into contemporary American society.
