Synopsis
-----------
Meet Esther Jiang, a 21 year old self absorbed promiscuous Chinese college student who suffers from suicidal ideation. After her Chinese mother's denouncement of her daughter's love of White men, Esther chooses to run away from both her aspiring film making career and her loving Asian family. She then seeks refuge in the cheapest hotel rooms of the Downtown Eastside and begins prostituting herself for free in the search of some form of self-love with a White man. It is through her relationships with four very different White men that allows Esther to eventually alleviate her hatred of her own Asian blood. Film Rating: R.
