Vu starts following Thang on his escapades through the city's nightlife, where he discovers a new world. He soon meets Van, a sensual female dancer who maintains a casual relationship with Thang. The three of them develop an increasingly ambiguous friendship. One night, they are involved in a street fight and forced to flee to Vu’s native village.
