ComedyDramaRomance112 min

Jimmy and Cherie, former lovers from Hong Kong, run into each other again in Beijing and discover that distance hasn’t settled much. Shawn Yue’s Jimmy and Miriam Yeung’s Cherie are both involved with other people now, but texts, business trips, and chance meetings between Beijing and Shanghai keep drawing them back into each other’s orbit. As they weigh loyalty to their new partners against a relationship they still can’t shake, Pang Ho-cheung follows the doubts, friction, and mixed signals that hang over a breakup neither of them has fully left behind.
