Synopsis
No Pain No Gain
Pei Qian accidentally gets an invitation from a mysterious big brother to start a company that must aim to lose money, and eventually becomes a conscientious boss in the hearts of his employees and an industry-recognized business whiz!
The Sticky
Ruth Clarke, a tough, supremely competent middle-aged Canadian maple syrup farmer has had it with being hemmed in by the polite, bureaucratic conventions native to her country’s identity. With the help of Remy Bouchard, a pint-sized local blockhead and an aging Mike Byrne, a low-level mobster, Ruth changes her fate — and transforms the future of her community with the theft of millions of dollars’ worth of maple syrup.
