《One Day That Day》

Synopsis

An old man has been running a waffle stall in a place for half a century, and the big tree that shades them has witnessed the changes of them and the city. One day, the old man came across a schoolboy who reminded him of a special time in his past, as well as some old promises that turned to regrets.

《Memory》

Synopsis

A dream is the fulfillment of desire. Whilst the flare is rocking by the bedside, the girl arrives in dreamland and had chemistry with a stranger boy there. She meets him again the next day on the basketball court. Is that pair of unforgettable eyes from a parallel spacetime or a memory disorder. I once wished not to think about you, your face profile and my wound; I tried to forget, but it takes too much courage. The last time I saw you was a short dream in cold winter where you were holding my hand, wandering around the world.

《Two》

Synopsis

Coming from the countryside of Guangdong, Wei takes his son Tong Tong on a journey to Macau where his deceased wife’s hometown was. They are muddling through in this extravagant city, just wanting to be accepted. In the cramped, impoverished and dark corner, outsiders like them are humble as dust, obscured silently in this city.
