Sam
is a 24-year-old Singaporean from a well-to-do family working
at a Hong Kong tabloid as a reporter/photographer. Filled with
passion for journalism, he inspires to reflect realism of society
in his work without compromising on ethics.
Jane is a 19-year-old Hong Kong girl who is disillusioned by
life. Having come from a dysfunctional family, she does not
believe that love can be unconditional. The impact of witnessing
her mum commit suicide as a child also left lasting scars that
she finds hard to erase.
The
crossing of paths of these two young people sparks off an unusual
love story where they learn to come to terms with their fears
and rethink what is important in their lives. Sam meets Jane
for the first time in a cinema. Fascinated by her, he involuntarily
follows her and discovers her streetwise ways. Sam decides to
make Jane the subject of his story.
What Sam uncovers is a lifestyle totally opposite of his proper
upbringing. Being naïve and kind-hearted, Sam starts taking
care of Jane while at the same time pursuing his story. Initially
guarded, Jane begins to soften as she realises that Sam genuinely
cares for her. Inspired by love, Jane starts to change her lifestyle
and even finds a job for the first time in her life.

As Jane and Sam begin to live life together, a visit by Sam's
parents cast a doubt in their relationship. Sam's mother immediately
shows a dislike for Jane. When caught in between, Sam finds
himself lying about Jane's background. Disappointed that Sam
seems ashamed of her, Jane leaves and returns to her old haunts.
When Sam realises his folly, he attempts to win Jane back and
nearly loses his life for it. (Source:
