Meet little Cheung - a rambunctious, charming nine-year-old who delivers take-out orders for his father`s restaurant. From brothels to barber shops Little Cheung becomes familiar with his wild Hong Kong neighbourhood and earns big tips at the same time. One day, Little Cheung befriends Fan, a mainland girl living illegally in the city. They spend all of their time together, enjoying one another`s company until they fall into the midst of a gangland fight. Miraculously saved by a stranger, Cheung makes it home only to be brutally punished by his father. Little Cheung runs away from home just when Fan is about to be deported.
