Finch & Midland

Timothy Yeung’s film is a story of big losses, small triumphs, and moments of grace amid the grind of capitalism — in other words, life itself. Four Hong Kong immigrants are living lives of desperation in Scarborough, Ontario: Dan (Patrick Tam) was a pop singer on the rise before his move to Canada, now he’s barely scraping by; Eva (Harriet Yeung) is a lonely woman whose commitment to her aging mother has held her back in life; Fan (Theresa Lee) is a part-time sex worker struggling to break into real estate; Tony (Anthony Wong) is an aging widower whose factory job is at risk.
