Fifteen-year-old Ming languishes through a sweltering summer in 1980s Taiwan. Sticky watermelon juice, the flicker of celluloid from a whirring projector, and a restless, humid yearning define her days. Adolescent boredom and hormonal turmoil find expression in the tapes from the local video store and in peculiar daydreams where reality bleeds into cinematic fantasy. A seemingly ordinary afternoon unravels into a series of absurd and unsettling events, blurring the lines between a first crush, situational comedy, and the dark humor that spirals toward an unexpected conclusion.
