Synopsis
When the urban landscape shapes the human relations: a mature woman, a bride and a group of young people seek proximity in the anonymity of the big city.A drenched middle-aged woman taking off her wig, gazing out of the glass windows.
A young man bursting into tears in a karaoke room surrounded by tropical landscape wallpaper.
A young woman trying to wipe a smear off of the wedding dress she’s wearing.
Each predicament is woven seamlessly together by a familiar Asian refrain…
