Shy LANY LIN spends her days taking care of her sick mother, AH LIN, and her nights volunteering at a temple. She is seen as good marriage material, especially by family friend, AUNTY SHIRLEY for her son, DANIEL. The all-Asian nightclub, Forbidden World, is disliked by the Chinese community, thought of as a place for promiscuous women in scanty outfits to perform. Despite this, Lany takes an apprentice job there to pay her mother's medical bills. Tough manager MADAM WU and seasoned dancer JANICE refuses to accept Lany's passive nature and forces her outside her comfort zone. After finally letting her hair down, Lany starts becoming fond of her new job. She finds freedom in dancing and bonds with the other girls. One night, during a solo performance, Lany is spotted by Daniel. News spreads and Lany is berated by her mother but refuses to give up the job. At the temple, her community refuses to even make eye contact with her. Refusing to feel ashamed, Lany does an impromptu performance in the temple and leaves with her head held high.
