In Hong Kong, an overachieving student tries to gain the attention of her favorite celebrity by converting her school's charity fashion show into a flashy display of Hong Kong culture, but gets accused of being too westernized. Fueled by pineapple buns and Cantonese soap operas, she devises a checklist for what it means to be "local" and embarks on a not-so-subtle quest to complete it before the show.
