Lovers who are happy together are
all the same.
Lovers whose relationship falls apart are all different, unique in the
ways they inflict emotional tortures on themselves and each other.

from Hong Kong.
But something went wrong while they were driving south in search of
adventures.
One day,on the road,Ho Po-Wing walked away from his lover.Now Lai works

his life,bruised and bleeding from a beating,he gives him a bed but
refuses to get back into a sexual relationship.Domesticity doesn't suit
Ho,who is soon spending nights out on the town.
Lai quits his job and starts working in the kitchen of Chinese restaurant,where
he befriends Chang,a kid from Taiwan.Without realising it,Lai begins
to fall in love with Chang.Meanwhile Ho's life continues to fall to
pieces.

One of the reasons I went to Argentina to shoot this film is that I
was tired of answering questions about the future of Hong Kong.
このフィルムを撮影するためにアルゼンチンへ行った理由の1つは、香港の将来についての疑問を考えることに、私が飽きていたということです。
