Taipei. A voice off-camera looks back ten years to 2000, when Vicky
was in an on-again off-again relationship with Hao-Hao. She's young,
lovely, and aimless. He's a slacker. Cigarettes and alcohol fuel her
nights. We see bits of her life: when Hao-Hao steals his father's
Rolex and the police detain them; when she gets a job as a club
hostess, where she meets Jack, who becomes her patron and protector;
when Hao-Hao comes to the club, insisting on talking to her; when she
visits Yubari, Japan, for its film festival in the dead of winter;
when Jack must go to Japan to straighten out trouble caused by one of
his acolytes. Does Vicky have any expectations? Does time simply pass?
