Decades after making a promise, Poh Huat returns to the Hawaii Nite Club, hoping to find his long-lost lover. The club, from a bygone era, exists in a place which time has forgotten. Siew Fang, the club’s owner, is trapped in a past she can’t let go of. Yen, the dancer, and Edward, the delivery boy, both yearn to escape lives they are bound to, longing for freedom that seems out of reach. In this forsaken space, their fates intertwine in surreal and unexpected ways. Four solitary souls, each caught in a prison of memory and desire, collide in this strange realm amid forgotten beats and fading lights. Through Poh Huat’s eyes, the lines between past and present, the living and the dead, blur. They each search for their own reason to keep going.
