A drama following a character actor in Chinatown thrust into the spotlight after witnessing a crime.
Willis Wu works as a background character in a police procedural called Black & White. Relegated to the background while on screen, Willis goes through the motions, waiting tables and dreaming about a whole world beyond Chinatown.
After inadvertently witnessing a crime, Willis begins to unravel a criminal web in Chinatown, his family's buried history, and what it feels like to be in the spotlight.
Based on Charles Yu's award-winning book of the same name.
