Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, China, the present day. Master chef Tang Shizhe (Kenneth Tsang) tells his two daughters, the careerist Wa'er (Huo Siyan) and teenage Xiaolan (Jiang Mengjie), that he has decided to sell his upscale vegetarian restaurant, the centre of his life for 30 years. Wa'er manages a luxury health resort and is dating Chang Chuan (Blue Lan), a computer-games designer from Taiwan. Chang Chuan goes to Taipei to visit his aunt, Pai Ping (Rose Kuei), who effectively raised him, and she ends up accompanying him back to Hangzhou, where she originally grew up but hasn't re-visited since leaving for Taiwan in her teens. Pai Ping meets Wa'er but her forthrightness often proves embarrassing in the sophisticated circles Wa'er moves in. Pai Ping notices, however, that Bei Ming (Chang Hsiao-chuan), general manager of the luxury health-resort group, is also romancing Wa'er, who feels neglected by Chang Chuan in favour of his work. One day Pai Ping tells Wa'er her story – how she was born in Hunan province, moved when young to Hangzhou where she worked in the restaurant business, and finally moved to Taiwan – and the two women bond. When Shizhe reveals the real reason for selling his restaurant, Wa'er resigns from her job to help him out and be with him. Meanwhile, Shizhe, who has not yet met Pai Ping, decides to cook a special meal to welcome her.

Crime | Drama
Sumida and his schoolmate Keiko are 14 year old school kids living a dystopian existence where each of their parents' hopes and encourages them to die. Set in tsunami-hit areas of Japan about May 2011, which is used as a backdrop, the story follows roughly that of the manga of the same name wherein Sumida fights frequently with his father, is abandoned by his mother and tends to reject friendly advances of others. Eventually, he kills his father and then, assuming his life is ruined, attempts to improve society by killing "bad" people. Although not immediately obvious, what instead happens is that he attacks psychotic and violent characters, while he instead learns from Keiko and the Yakuza and people who befriended him that he himself has become "sick", eventually breaking free of the cycle of violence, but without a complete resolution of the issues raised during the movie before its end.
