Synopsis

[edit]

A bumbling Chinese talent manager travels to Los Angeles to retrieve his singer who fled to elope mid-tour. Instead of retrieving his singer, his futile attempts land him in an arranged marriage with five adopted kids and an angry boss demanding his investment back. In his quest to reclaim fame and fortune, papa learns an important lesson in what it means to be a family.[3]

The film follows a plot similar to a 2012 South Korean film, also named Papa.
