Summary On a rooftop high above the bustling streets of Hong Kong, a woman practices the ancient art of tai chi as her daughter watches from the shadows. Invisible to the city below, they share their lofted home with 30 other families. All live in shanties perched precariously on top of a nine-story building. This film delivers an intimate view of life in these illegal rooftop tenements
