Abstract

A SMALL POTATO is comprised of six short stories. Set in Hong Kong, the stories explore the lives of characters who are caught in the crossroads between past and present, money and dreams, duty and desire, the political and personal, and are confronted with the question of what success means and what the costs are to achieving it.
