Tom (DARREN YAP), a Chinese Australian man in his early forties, writes about his childhood. We see the story unfold as he does. It is 1964. Tom's mother, Rose Hong (JOAN CHEN), a beautiful and glamorous Shanghai nightclub singer, meets Bill (STEVEN VIDLER), an Australian sailor, and migrates to Victoria with her two children, Tom (JOEL LOK) and May (IRENE CHEN). However, their marriage is short-lived and Rose and her children move to Sydney, where she spends the next seven years working in Chinese restaurants.
