In the glittering heart of New York City, where dreams are as tall as skyscrapers and the pressure to succeed is relentless, Xiao, a 22-year-old ballet prodigy, dances on the edge of perfection and self-destruction.
When his parents, who migrated to New York to build a better life, urge him to settle down and start a family, Xiao is torn between their expectations and his own ambitions. His journey is one of self-discovery, as he learns to navigate the complexities of identity, love, and the relentless pursuit of artistic excellence. And binge eating on instant noodles.
