Plot
The film traces the journey of Fiona, a young girl who returns to Hong Kong from London to attend her estranged father's funeral. She seeks to get closure on the relationship but finds out that though he died penniless and alone, he left something for her. In the meanwhile she meets her best friend from school, Charlie, who is nerdy, endearing and filled with angst. Together, they seek to find her inheritance, in the process finding more within each other. As Charlie was helping Fiona find the memories of her father, Fiona slowly discovers the inheritance of her lost father in the growing love from Charlie.
