Plots(1)
Beijing today. Guei has just arrived from his village. He is 16. He finds work with a delivery service that cleans him up, clothes him, and lends him a bicycle: a magnificent silver mountain bike. The company pays well, but Guei must pay part of the money back to buy the bicycle on which he spends the better part of his days. One day when Guei has almost finished paying for it, the bicycle disappears, stolen from in front of a building where he is delivering a package. Without his bicycle, Guei no longer has a job. So he runs all over Beijing in search of his bicycle. But when, miraculously, Xiao Guei finds it, Jian is riding it. All he needs to do is steal his own bicycle back, but Jian doesn't see things the same way. He bought this bicycle at the flea market. They will just have to learn to share. (Pyramide Distribution)
