🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Director Wong Ching-po constructs the narrative through a slow burn of tension, employing long takes and a muted color palette that mirrors Hong Kong's moral ambiguity.
What lingers after is a complex psychological portrait of a man on the edge, where the investigation merely serves as a gateway into the depths of memory. This is where film noir meets personal tragedy, resulting in a hypnotic and unsettling canvas. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Jonathan Li Tsz-Chun

On a near-empty night tram, as the city outside dissolves into a flickering palette of neon lights and shadows.
