    • Synopsis
    • A young woman sits alone crying in a local coin laundry along a street in Taipei. A man who comes in to pick up his washing can’t help but notice her emotional state. He guesses that she’s distressed about a love relationship. She offers a fleeting smile at his perceptiveness. When the woman notices he owns a stuffed toy pig just like the ones she used to share with her ex-boyfriend, she lets her guard down and reveals that she’s waiting for him to pass by. The man advises against showing up unannounced and encourages her to move on, but will she be able to?
