Singaporean director Jow Zhi Wei's feature film debut, co-produced by Singapore, Taiwan, France, and Portugal, is a visually striking wonder, reminiscent of the works of Apichatpong Weerasethakul. The film transports viewers into an unsettling void, where the lives of the forgotten unfold. Jow's earlier short films have garnered recognition at esteemed film festivals, including Cannes, Busan, and San Sebastian.

Chua and Meng, the father and son, exist in a social context wherein the mass of steel and concrete spaces are underpinned by very fragile lives. Chua, the father, is struggling on the periphery, while Meng, a callow youth, is searching for his identity in a displaced society. This is a personal portrait of the massive dichotomy of economic progress and the people who maintain it, a working class lost in the wilderness of survival in the modern world.

新加坡導演姚志衞掌鏡，由台、星、法、葡四國合製，獲得台灣文策院的國際合製專案支持，入圍柏林影展新世代單元角逐水晶熊獎。由台灣實力派影帝戴立忍出馬，新加坡新銳演員陳嘉良初試啼聲，共同譜出一段深刻揪心的父子情，展開迷惘青年的自我放逐之旅。

道康（戴立忍 飾）帶著兒子小蒙（陳嘉良 飾）移民到新加坡，從事除蟲工人的他無暇陪伴兒子。同時小蒙卻在學校遭到霸凌。這時候更殘酷的意外發生，讓小蒙不得不離開學校，走上未知的道路......
