Two awkward European entrepreneurs set out on a business adventure to try and make their fortune in the lucrative Chinese Pet industry. When their seemingly genius plan to create a breeding center for St.Bernards (a symbol of wealth amongst the working-class) doesn’t develop as expected, their desperation drives them off course. A hilarious film about misguided ambition and an unlikely friendship forming in adversity.
