When young Teoh is dumped by his live-in girlfriend, she takes most of the possessions including the washing machine, leaving him unable to cope with life and the laundry. He buys a second-hand one that turns out to have more temperament than any warranty deal ever warned you about.
Into this cycle comes a middle-aged widower Mr. Wong with manga-mask fetish, a few pirated-VCD gangsters, plus the consequences of love and abandonment in the fast-changing city of Kuala Lumpur. Pretty soon the eponymous appliance starts to seem like the most sane creature in this gleefully off-kilter dark comedy about more than one type of dirty linen.
