After June accidentally served her boss's breast milk to a client, she assembles a group of her estranged friends on WeChat to find a replacement bottle before her boss leaves.
The film was shot over 14 days with a heavy use of improvisation.[1]
It was released over Chinese New Year. Edmund Lee of the South China Morning Post gave the film three of five stars and wrote that while he liked the wordplay humour the script was "hit or miss".[1] Arturo Arredondo for the Georgia Asian Times gave the film four out of five stars, praising the cast's acting and improvisational skills.[2] Elizabeth Kerr of The Hollywood Reporter praised the film's blend of coarse and witty humor but noted its regional Hong Kong idiosyncrasies as a barrier for international appeal.[3]
