If even one child becomes better because of my persistence, then all my efforts are worthwhile! This film deeply portrays every little detail and hardships of the teaching profession. It’s not just a story about one teacher but a mirror reflecting the dedication and perseverance of every teacher. We hope that through this film, we can pay the highest respect to all teachers silently working in education, sparking greater awareness and respect for education and teachers, and together, rekindling the passion and dignity of teachers before it’s too late.

Bao, a young chef with the ability to see ghosts, keeps a low profile to avoid wandering souls, a challenging task during the Hungry Ghost Festival. His life takes a turn when he encounters Soo Lian, a wandering ghost who refuses reincarnation and seeks Bao's assistance in reuniting with her lover, Hock.

Hou Ba Tian feels like he is cursed: Shorter than most, he is also cowardly, and anything but a shining star in the workplace. What’s more, everything good in his life appears to come with an eight-day time limit: Just eight days after finding a new job, he is fired by his disappointed boss. Just eight days after starting a new relationship, his girlfriend dumps him. No matter what he tries, he cannot seem to find long-term satisfaction or success. Meanwhile, Meng Po Er is also down on her luck. Although she is tall and good-looking, she has just been robbed. She is then thrown out of her house and is eventually forced to take a job at a street food vendors’ stall.

On the run from danger and responsibility, Zi-xiang finds safety—and romance—with Shao-peng, while chaos brews around them.
