Six-year-old Junior is an exceptionally emotionally mature child. He expresses original, rather skeptical, existential thoughts. He has a dignified, masculine voice and loves to smoke cigarettes. In the cigarette smoke, he ponders his family and its psychological complexities. When his father, a famous pilot, crashes in China under unexplained circumstances and is accused of treason, Junior sets out on a journey to unravel the mystery of his mysterious disappearance. Written in the style of a crime novel, fairy tale, and magical realism, Junior's journey to Shanghai and the rocky Malacca Mountain triggers a series of questions about his famous father's secret life.
