🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a portrait of a lost generation, relying on exaggerated yet recognizable traits of teenage rebellion. It explores a vacuum of values where external glitter and instant gratification become the sole purpose.

What lingers after viewing is a harsh, at times cynical picture of coming-of-age without guidance, where bravado masks a deep wound of loneliness. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Guan Xiaojie
