Pots & Pans features a fantastical family in Queens, including a Chinese grandmother who replaces a leg lost to gangrene with a frying pan; Aunt Lola, who collects boxes of Marlboro cigarette cases for UPC codes; and many more grotesquely charming characters. The family is seen through the whimsical eyes of a little Chinese girl who likes to play drums on pots and pans.
