Savage will portray a frustrated US businessman Frank Dreibelbis who tries to solve his mid-life crisis by finding a gullible rich man to buy his bankruptcy-bound cheese factory, so that he can go to live in southern Spain.
He comes to Beijing and meets a Chinese investor (Ge You), an actress wannabe (Kelly Lin) and a mine owner seeking to escape justice. Unbeknownst to Frank, the characters he meets in Beijing also suffer from failing businesses and dysfunctional families.
