The human-traffickers have a well-established route: from Burma into Thailand. Lianqing is one of five illegals who travels this route one summer night in 2013; along the way a fellow migrant called Guo is kind to her, and their fates become entwined. Once in Thailand, Lianqing finds ‘underground’ jobs, saves money and finds out where to buy fake identity papers in the hope of making it to Taiwan. But Guo has different ambitions…
