After sneaking out of her father's birthday dinner, Esther Wang wanders the streets of Brooklyn in search of one good party. But a solo journey to find the celebration with her true family only leads to a dead cell phone, and a locked warehouse door with the raging party on the other side. Determined, she knocks all night until suddenly it's morning and she's asleep on the sidewalk. In the harsh light of day, she's forced to face her identity when a homeless outreach worker, her only ride home, needs Esther to translate for a struggling Chinese woman who belongs to the streets.
