“Waiting For My Cup of Tea” is undeniably a slow burn. Despite being under two hours, the plot moves rather steadily, leaving viewers to ponder over each set piece, and dwell over the ongoings.

“Waiting For My Cup of Tea” is screening at Asian Pop-Up Cinema
The majority of the film focuses on two rather enigmatic characters, Xiao Hua (Ellen Wu), and Huang Zi Jie (Simon Lian).
