This screening will be followed by an online Q&A with director Li Dongmei, moderated by Victor Fan.
A young couple live in a small apartment in the city. He earns little and she’s pregnant. Through their brief exchanges and moments of solitude, it becomes clear that their relationship has, without either of them realising it, edged towards a crisis point. A tale told through moments of quietude, of waiting and longing, capturing the hardships of modern-day womanhood with an understated empathy.
