During a hot and humid summer night in Taipei, Jenny is given an expensive cell phone by her boyfriend, Luke. They stroll through the bustling, exotic, night market crowds and effervescent atmosphere. But Luke is suddenly called back to work by his boss.

The mysterious young woman, Ya-Ya, steals Jenny’s phone and tries to break into it—only to be thwarted by a playful yet sophisticated Android password. But Jenny is hot on Ya-Ya’s tail, in a passionate pursuit to get her phone back, leaving Ya-Ya hunted, trying to find safety in the crowds of the night market.
