Description

Chun lives in a shophouse on Telok Ayer Street where bullock carts and rickshaws clatter by. Her blissful life with her family and her beloved grandmother is upset by a man who looks Chinese but doesn't dress like one. He tells her father that Chun and her sisters should go to school. Mother firmly disagrees. Chun turns to her wise grandmother for help, but she keeps strangely quiet. To make matters worse, the cook’s assistant, Boh Gnee, gives Chun the creeps —he is always staring at her. One day, he surprises her with something that changes both their lives.
