The film offers a single moment in time, a brief narrative that ties a past and a present circumstance together. In the process, it suggests a picture of what the future might look like for the protagonist.
A woman sits before scattered sheets of paper, puzzling over a branding assignment of hers. It is regarding a Chinese restaurant that has been run by her family in Canada. However along with the racial and cultural forces at play, which may be specific to the protagonist, a universal image is also presented to the viewer - one about comfort, intimacy, love and simply a food item being capable of invoking them all.
The film exhibits notable storytelling, but only offers a sole incident to express it. Consequently, the possibility of developing the project into a longer endeavor is definitely something worth pursuing.
