WISHING TREE

Kim is a multi-cultural attractive young woman who grew up in America and spent many years in Europe. Due to her oriental mother, Kim is also heavily steeped in old Chinese tradition. While studying art at the University of Munich she falls in love with a young German man. He comes from a well-to-do family and adores her. Everything looks perfect, but for Kim something is missing. But how can you know what you want when you don’t know who you are? Kim flies to Hong Kong. Here, where everything looks so strange but yet feels so familiar, she will discover love, friendship and what it means to be true to yourself.
