Filmmaker John Helde sets out to understand his father Tom's remarkable childhood as a white American growing up in 1930's China. Navigating his father's reticence, he tracks down Tom's China-born peers, a unique community of Americans who grew up with a foot in two cultures. But when cancer intervenes, John's hope for his father to return to the home he left behind fades - and John's ensuing solo journey across modern China, guided by new friends, becomes an exploration of what "home" really means.
