Synopsis:
Czech tourist Lada found a suitcase containing 22 rolls of undeveloped
film in a Swedish dumpster. When developed, the negatives produced
756 fascinating snapshots of six unknown Chinese tourists. The
film crew search for those people according their lost photos
in a world where every fourth person is Chinese. At the end
of the journey tracing the unknown Asians footsteps, the story
becomes a part of the Chinese TV industry viewed by more than
300 000 000 Chinese. This documentary detective story is about
travel, photos, and identity in an interconnected world, about
memory and the importance of treasuring images, about Czech,
Europeans, and Chinese.
