- Synopsis
- Lam Tung’s children have all grown up and settled down abroad. While he lives alone in his old-fashioned apartment, he decides to let a room to Cheng Yang, a young Beijinger who comes to study film in Hong Kong. Despite their differences in age and cultural background, antagonistic feeling or superiority are not seen in their attitude towards each other. Instead, they are both learning to understand each other, having a seemingly harmonious tenant-and-landlord relationship. Lam tries to appreciate the Manet painting in Cheng’s room, tries to watch an art-house Russian film with him, even tries to help him to make a film. They are bound together as if having a quasi-father-and-son relationship. The depiction of everyday life gives rise to a promising subtlety in human relationship.
