Film description
Raymond has a great creative job: he designs action figures. He also has a talented son and a wife who takes care of his education. The CV race is already on in the kindergarten, so even though the father plays with toys at his job, the son has to work on his English skills. What will happen when the company introduced reductions? The touching family story is a pretext to portray the dilemmas familiar to young parents not just in Hong Kong.
