--Glamour
Anh, a brash, resourceful Vietnamese refugee with a tortured past, has survived the end of her homeland, and now hangs on by a thread working in a shady casino in Southern California. She's the only thing standing between her ungrateful family and starvation. By dint of her wits and her guts, she picks up real money selling her phenomenal luck to a drugged-out gambling lawyer.
Then, with the help of a legal secretary named Jana, she creates an unlicensed law practice that actually begins to help the Vietnamese immigrants of Little Saigon. But their booming business angers a notorious Vietnamese gang who want to keep the power and the money in their own pockets. Yet Anh isn't afraid of anyone.
