Director Statement

This film is about the living environment of LGBTQ+ in modern China. Hope will bring confidence and hope to the LGBTQ+ community in China. Especially for the current LGBTQ+ social environment in China, this is a story and film project full of challenges and breakthroughs.
It is also my reflection on friendship and love and the previous relationship between the two boys. It also covers dreams and reality.
This is my first feature film, It's a small-budget movie, but I want it to be socially valuable. Now we are working on more post-production attempts and more accurate English subtitles.
