After his father abandons the family, Autumn Moon drops out of high school and becomes a debt collector for the Triads. On his rounds, he meets and falls in love with Ping, a daughter of one of the Triads' clients.

VIBE

A raw, yet tender portrait of young lives adrift in a city on the brink. It captures a specific, fleeting moment of urban ennui, where fleeting romance brushes against the specter of death with a darkly comedic touch.
