CHOU MEI-LING
A film that straightforwardiy portrays the secret love of homosexuals. It depicts the beauty of gay love, brimming with splendor and passion, Yet squeezed into a corner of society, with its traditional values, this love must be expressed in secrecy. The film transcends the framework of ordinary documentaries, attempting to capture the feeling of love, and a reflection on life, with a poetic atmosphere. Repressed by the norms of society, many homosexuals must join in false marriages or repress their own sexual tendencies, caught in a struggle between their environment and their own natures.
