SYNOPSIS
During a family engagement party at a Chinese restaurant, a group of racist hecklers shout rude comments at Sarah, Amanda, their parents and guests.

“Yoshida is a deft storyteller, the performances are brilliant and affecting, and the video is a perfect complement to Sum’s bittersweet and slightly off-kilter, low-key sparkly pop.”
– Andrea Warner, Associate Producer, CBC Music
