A child goes missing.
On a hill stands a huge banyan tree.
The story unfolds ...
Kenny Leong, a university student, and his two brothers open a restaurant in London.
His Irish friend, Trevor, helps out as a waiter. At first the restaurant is a failure but when the junior chef, Faizah, cooks up a new mysterious Malay dish, everything changes for them all.
In this haunting tale of love and healing, we follow Kenny and Trevor from London to Seville, and then to Malaysia thirty years later.
