Set in Victoria Park, Hong Kong, the narrative explores the lives of Indonesian Muslim women seeking opportunities in a bustling city. While many work as maids, some face the challenges of being overstayers or engaging in illegal activities. Central to their stories is Dina, a compassionate figure who sells phone cards and offers support, advice, and a listening ear to these women navigating their struggles and aspirations in a foreign land.
