To settle her father's debt, she must reunite with them to run the family's hot pot restaurant. While the androgynous Taiwan sister is plagued by her toxic relationship with her mother, the fashionista sister from China is trying to fend off her grandmother's pressure to get married. Meanwhile, she is striving to unshackle herself from her ex-boyfriend in order to start a new relationship. The latest film from writer/director Heiward Mak, who appeared in person at a previous Made in Hong Kong Film Festival with her film Diva, is, according to Edmund Lee of the South China Morning Post, “one of the best Hong Kong films of recent times.” (Dir.: Heiward Mak, Hong Kong, 2019, 118 min., Cantonese and Mandarin with English and Chinese subtitles) |
