Gracie Reed is the biracial daughter of a white Canadian man and a Chinese mother now struggling with dementia. First, her boss sexually harasses and then fires her. Next, a paparazzo mistakes her for Chinese megastar Wei Fangli, who is in Toronto to star in a play. It's shock after shock when Fangli herself approaches Gracie with a proposition: impersonate the burned-out Fangli at PR events for a six-figure sum. Hesitant at first, Gracie decides to accept the offer, not just for the money (which she needs to pay for her mother’s dementia care), but for the experiences and the chance to feel significant for once. Unfortunately, Fangli’s best friend and co-star Sam Yao thinks this is a terrible idea. Also unfortunately, he’s the most attractive person Gracie has ever seen.
