“You talked to the stars in the sky, you went skinny-dipping at night…
The only thing you didn’t do was go to Tiananmen Square and join the protest.”
Hong Kong, 1999. Jing, a slick Taiwanese executive, is traveling from Taiwan to meet with CEO More and discuss a merger between their two companies. However, just as negotiations are about to begin two strangers unexpectedly arrive… forcing the high rollers to confront a passionate and painful past. Threads of a forgotten history are unravelled by truths that cannot be undone, and a future that is yet to be remembered.
