Hong Kong couple Lai (Tony Leung) and Ho (Leslie Cheung) travel to the other side of the world to try to salvage their relationship in Argentina.
The film features hypnotic cinematography from Wong Kar Wai’s longtime Australian collaborator, Christopher Doyle and serves as a moody meditation on longing and loneliness.
‘Even after all these years, very few queer relationships on-screen have come this close to capturing the forever-shifting power dynamics of love in a way that is honest without being grim, and entertaining without being melodramatic.’ – The Asian Cut
