    Vampire is always here. You and I have not met them as there is a secret department in this city – VDC, the Vampire Cleanup Department. The remote trash collection point is their secret base. The big green rubbish bins there contain the defeated Vampire. The street sweepers work there are the Vampire Hunters!

    Tim Cheung is a typical local Hong Kong teenager. He lives with his grandma and plays his iphone all day long. Coincidentally, he is invited to be the new member of the VCD. He is trained to be a Vampire Hunter - fighting vampires with his broom.

    In an operation, he meets the Vampire Emperor and a lady vampire called Summer. She was buried alive for sacrifice hundred years ago, but, at the moment she attacks Tim, a drop of tear come out from her eyes...... Their fates are then twisted together.

[ TORONTO INTERNATION FILM FESTIVAL ]
    Tung has just been dismissed from the mental hospital where he's spent the last few years suffering from a severe form of bipolar disorder. He is not cured; his illness is one that can at best be managed. Once a successful financial analyst, Tung lost his job due to a nervous breakdown, and no one is willing to hire him back.

    Tung's father is less than happy to have him back home in his tiny single-room apartment. A truck driver who must often travel to China, he's overcome with worry whenever he has to go away, leaving Tung and his medication regime unsupervised. During these periods of solitude, Tung is either at the mercy of nosy, narrow-minded neighbours or, worse, left alone with the ghosts of his past. That past is the source of rifts and resentment between father and son, and its invisible presence may suffocate them both in this claustrophobic shared space. Soon, though, the hostile world outside the apartment presents a whole other set of difficulties. - GIOVANNA FULVI
