Plot



Mia (Vicky Chen), a teenager, works as a cleaner in a motel in a small seaside town. One night, while manning the reception for her co-worker Lili (Peng Jing), she witnesses the sexual assault of two 12-year-old schoolgirls by a middle-aged man. Through the surveillance TV, she sees the man forcing himself into the girls' room and records the whole incident with her mobile phone. Mia keeps quiet for fear of losing her job. However, for one of the victims, Xiaowen (Zhou Meijun) realises that her troubles have only just begun.
