FRANKLIN

A hundred dollar bill, FRANKLIN, passes through the hands of a Filipino fisherman who was attacked at sea and loses everything he has to a Vietnamese bride who seeks financial freedom and freedom to love to a Thai masseuse who seeks the freedom of choice and then a Hong Kong actor who migrates to Taiwan to free himself from opression.

FRANKLIN explores the value of money, love and freedom in 4 short stories.
