Synopsis:

As dawn breaks, the long-time merchants of Vancouver’s Chinatown are hard at work. They haul out produce stands and set up make-shift vendor carts in preparation for what they hope will be a busy day. But, as with many ethnic enclaves in urban centres across North America, their clientele is dwindling. This once vibrant and thriving community is in flux as new condo developments are approved and non-Chinese businesses move into vacant storefronts. [Synopsis courtesy of Hot Docs]
