Teddy and Polly are lost, twenty-something queers flying from London to Shanghai for Niki, Polly's ex-girlfriend's funeral. This traditional mourning ritual celebrating Niki's life is on the same day as the Nanjing Massacre memorial (13th December). This brings up Teddy's own connection with the controversial historical figure, the "good Nazi in Nanjing", who has been haunting him since his breakup with his ex. Following these unresolved separations in death and misunderstandings in life, Chestnuts tells a story about friendship, migration, queer identity, relationship across cultures, feeling like an outsider and searching for peace when it never truly existed.
