| Summary: | A single father makes his meager living holding up an advertising placard on a traffic island in the middle of a busy highway.

As the father starts to come apart, a woman in the supermarket takes the children under her wing. There are real stray dogs to be fed in Tsai's everyday apocalypse, but the title also refers to its principal characters. |
