萨巴斯丁（莱恩?菲利普RyanPhillippe饰）和凯瑟琳（莎拉?米歇尔?盖拉SarahMichelleGellar饰）本来是两个家庭的孩子，因为父母的结合成为了两姊弟。二人为了私心开始了一场游戏，如果萨巴斯丁输了，他的豪华跑车将归凯瑟琳所有；如果他赢了，凯瑟琳将要为他提供一夜服务。这个游戏就是，萨巴斯丁必须把校长的女儿安妮（瑞茜?威瑟斯彭ReeseWitherspoon饰）搞到手。尽管他上过曼哈顿地区的无数女孩，但是对于安妮，却有着一定的难度——她曾经在《十七岁》杂志上发表文章声称，要把童贞留到新婚夜。对于这次有难度的猎艳行动，萨巴斯丁当然全力以赴，然而让他意外的是，游戏变得越来越复杂，超出了他的预计。

本片以上世纪六十年代的本地家庭为主轴，通过成员的际遇，带出早期的甘榜生活以及后来的组屋生活，剧情横跨数十年。电影也将体现新加坡如何从一个以方言为主流语言的社会演变成华语到现今英语的过程，从中回顾流失的方言。它也会融入导演的许多亲身经历，并将安插多首怀旧歌曲。Afterthe1969nationwidefloods,ZhaoDitakesoverherfathersfamilyfarmwiththehelpofreformedgangsterAhLong.AsSingaporeseconomyprospers,theSingaporeanmindsetisalsoforcedtochangewiththetimes.Osmancatcheshisteenageson,Ahmadpracticingwithhisrockband.Asaconservativeman,OsmanbelievesrockmusicwillhaveanegativeinfluenceonAhmad.Fatherandsonargueovertheirdifferentopinions,causingAhmadtorunaway.Meanwhile,AhHeeandRanidecidetogetmarried.Buttheirtraditionalparentsdisapproveoftheirmarriage.In1977,theGovernmentbeginsexpropriatinglandforredevelopment,forcingvillagersfromtheirkampongs.Licensedfarmlandowners,suchasZhaoDi,arefinanciallycompensatedfortheirland.AhKun,ZhaoDisgreedybrotheraccusesZhaoDiandAhLongofhavinganaffairtotarnishhernameinfrontofthefamily.InthemidstofAhKunspersistentaccusations,ZhaoDishealthtakesahit.WillZhaoDibeabletokeepherhard-earnedcompensationmoney?WhatwillbecomeofherfamilyifZhaoDishealthcontinuestodeteriorate?Aspeoplechangewithtime,willthekampongspiritremain?
