A coastal metropolis in Brazil. Heartbroken, Kai lands from Taiwan for a vacation. A broken air conditioner leads them to Fu Ang's umbrella shop. He could become a friend, but the rainy season doesn't come and his business disappears. While searching for Fu Ang, Kai discovers the story of Xiaoxin and a group of Chinese workers in a posh skyscraper. Imported products made in China deliver problems to their rich, white neighbors. In Xiaoxin's story, Kai finds himself strangely reflected.

Main characters come and go unexpectedly in this quiet comedy of misunderstandings, played by amateurs and actors. From one foreign city to the next they follow the needs of work more than a classic dramaturgy. But over the course of a hot, slow summer, tender bonds grow between them like islands in a sea full of sharks.
