For the longest time, Zaki has dreamed about coming to America. He enrolls himself in a business course and finds himself in New York City -- in an apartment with two illegal Indonesian immigrants; Ferdy and Mira, in Flushing, Queens. As he grapples with the harsh reality of living in the city, he finds himself slowly attracted to Mira. She helps him realize the possibilities of starting life anew -- possibilities that are threatened by an impending marriage and his awaited return to Malaysia
