Three separate stories about dreams and loves of twenty-somethings set in the mega-city of Shanghai. Xu Yu, an intelligent boy from a modest background has to watch as the object of his desire becomes alienated from him as her suddenly rich family moves to a chic new district. Then, there is the hip night owls Jenny and her boyfriend, the popular nightclub DJ Calvin, who slowly realize that their way of life is temporarily and vulnerable. And finally the Dutch architect Jochem, who recently moved to Shanghai, feels attracted to the elegant, ambitious Zhang Yi.
