The story

19-year-old Ah Loong (who also called himself "Jason") is in charge of a market stall selling pirated VCDs, but is an incurable romantic with an unlikely hobby: he loves to read and write poetry. One day, his life takes a sudden turn one day when a Malay schoolgirl, Orked, comes to his stall looking for films starring her favourite actor, Takeshi Kaneshiro. Jason and Orked start a romantic relationship, although social and racial pressures stand in their way.
