MovieDrama
A transgender woman from mainland China travels to Hong Kong with a single, urgent goal: to undergo gender-affirming surgery. Moving through the city in a state of emotional suspension, she navigates temporary lodging, medical bureaucracy, and fleeting encounters with strangers who alternately offer intimacy, indifference, or quiet solidarity. As the date of the operation approaches, her journey becomes less about the procedure itself than about the weight of expectation, fear, and self-recognition.

Kam Muiday (Elaine JIN) has long been asking her granddaughter Sunnie Lam (CHUNG Suet Ying) to buy the same set of lucky numbers in each Mark Six lottery ticket for years. However, fate played a cruel trick. During the Lunar New Year’s "Snowball Draws", Sunnie was unable to place the bet, and that set of lucky numbers won a jackpot of HK$ 88.88 million. Not wanting to shatter grandmother's dream, Sunnie borrowed a villa from her filming colleague Jay Lai (Edan LUI), claiming that it was purchased with the winnings. Sunnie's father, Ken Lam (Jiro LEE), mother Charlotte Tong (Harriet YEUNG), and younger brother Harry Lam (LI Hoi Lam Marek), moved into the villa with her grandmother. Living together under one roof gradually healed their once-distant relationships and brought them closer. However, an unexpected incident ultimately revealed this well-intentioned "villa lie"...

If a goddess has come down to earth, could she bring back lost time for man? Ning takes a substitute teaching position at a rural school, hoping to find inspiration for her novel from nature. One day after class, students Richard and LAM Mak-noeng, a mysteriously masked girl who shares the same name as the Empress of Heaven, come to her for help. It turns out that Mak-noeng is about to disappear. Faced with such an ethereal problem, Ning takes on the responsibility of a storyteller and seeks a happy ending for this heavenly romance. The director, who has always been interested in urban issues, has continued to mix historical and fantastical elements like he has done with Interview with Lo-Ting: An Oral History Project (2022). A modern love story with celestial inspiration, the film gently caresses the remnants of our city and the melancholy of lonely souls.

“Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him.” Inside an after-hours bowling alley, a counselling session is underway with the attendances discussing the various merits and drawbacks of execution strategies and the prevention of occupational hazards. A man offers to play the flute and all hell breaks loose from there. The weapon is a folded chair, the victims his fellow professionals and the crime is predestined by karma. As the camera lingers on the gory actions, set to offbeat music and at times muted and occurring out-of-frame, a foreboding, dark and somewhat sinister overtone hangs heavy in the air. In a profession such as his, life is predestined by karma and choice is not an option.
