Hui Yi Jian

Billie once basked in the spotlight as an internet singer-songwriter—until her fame faded and her songs drew only harsh criticism. Urged by her father to give up her “star dream,” she fled home in a storm of emotion. Three years later, she wakes up and discovers she was found unconscious on the street, and has no memory of her disappearance, clinging to a sketchbook filled with evocative drawings of Hong Kong's streetscapes. As Billie retraces the vivid locations within her sketches, she embarks on a profound, otherworldly journey through memory and place—seeking not just what she has lost, but who she has become.
