, Hong Kong actor Anthony Wong, Denny Tsao, Jett Lee and Japanese director actor Toyoharu Kitamura. Directed and written by notable film critic Wei Wang. This is the feature directorial debut by Wang Wei. The film is set in Taipei's trendy Ximending district, best known for its mix of alternative lifestyles, youth fashion and the antimony of adolescent life, and provides an upbeat story of damaged young people finding their purpose in life. The films upbeat tone may appeal to some, but the complexity of the background is obliterated by stereotypes.

Plot

Heartbroken Jin (Dylan Kuo) believes he will never fall in love again. Ending up in Ximending (the cultural-fashion hub of Taipei) after wandering for 12 years, Jin meets the happy go lucky Moé (Amber An), who resuscitates his heart. At the same time, Jin becomes an apprentice to a fortuneteller named Oracle (Anthony Wong), who is the nexus of a list of quirky characters who reside in Ximending. They include Mommy (Denny Tsao), the self-proclaimed 'Queen' of the district. Ace (Jett Lee), a young punk about town who dreams of becoming an idol singer. Aniki (Toyoharu Kitamura), a tattoo artist and a self-proclaimed Japanese gangster. Seemingly mismatched, these eclectic individual's paths intertwine, inexplicably affecting one another and in turn, the pulse of today's Taipei.
