A wry, widowed grandmother hopes to maintain her freedom and avoid moving in with her overbearing son and his family. But when Grandma Wong relies on the words of a fortune teller and seizes an opportunity too good to miss, she becomes unwittingly entangled with the gangs of New York's Chinatown.
This charming and heartfelt comedy-drama from director Sasie Sealy tackles ageing and independence with humour and insight.
