Life after university may be just dandy for people with passion and drive, but what happens if you are aimless, dreamless and hopeless? With no goals or ambition in life, a fresh graduate believes that she is an oddball destined for mediocrity. Her perfect solution is to be a slacker and to work part-time at a 12-dollar store.

The array of eccentric characters at the 12-dollar store speaks volumes on how the new generation perceives their less-than-rosy future.

The duties of an art museum security guard include: 1. Execute the rules strictly. 2. Check the facility and make sure everything is in working order. 3.

Facing the four walls of a gallery, pompous art works and visitors who break the rules, an old security guard falls into a hypnotic trance at times. He writes “Everything in order” on every page of the incident report routinely like his colleague. One night, a sobbing policewoman comes to search for her missing Malinois. Is the world still in order?
