Many plots are interwoven. Feeble-minded Fai-26 is pampered by Millie, his still-attractive mother. Little Ping and his sister-by-adoption, Minmin, are Fai's loyal friends. Their father Uncle Ying, who was once Millie's suitor, is reluctant to take Fai as a boarder so that Millie can marry Philip. Minmin is happy selling pirated tapes on Hong Kong's notorious Portland Street, but Little Ping, whom she loves, aims for a career in the performing arts. Mandarin as well as English subtitles.
