Body Text

With only the scantiest clues to go on, a man undertakes a humourous and serendipitous search for his ancestral home in China to uncover a family secret which may or may not be true. This man, so fixated on finding out the truth, may or may not find what he is searching for in the first place. Director, playwright and actor, Oliver Chong, delivers a monologue about finding oneself in a strange world he calls home.
