Yuan Sen, an introverted photographer-in-training in the UK, returns to Hong Kong after a troubling dream about his younger brother Ah Hongtuo, who he imagines dying after a claw-like beast attacks him. The father’s suicide—born from grief after discovering his wife’s infidelity—casts a long shadow over Yuan Sen and shapes his guarded, solitary nature.
