Abstract:

Shot by acclaimed cinametographer and frequent Wong Kar-Wai (see Happy Together) collaborator, Christopher Doyle, this four-part anthology film is a wonderful showcase for Sandra Ng, one of Hong Kong's most talented actress-comedians. Ng plays a weeping call girl who becomes obsessed with a shy psychiatrist, a bored housewife enslaved to her husband and his mistress, a lovesick girl and pair of inseparable cross-dressing twins in this daring exploration of gender roles in contemporary Hong Kong. With Karen Mok and Chingmy Yau
