Moon plays basketball, cares for his mentally handicapped friend Sylvester and finances his every day life with occasional jobs for triad boss Brother Wing. He meets ill Ping, whom he tries to help thereafter. Simultaneously, farewell letters of an unknown girl make the group of adolescents search for a ghost in the big city. MADE IN HONG KONG is a pessimistic view into the future of an isolated terrain. Fruit Chan’s heroes are aware that the world is oriented against them. Nevertheless, they try to oppose hopelessness.
