Hong Kong under the bow

The screenwriter's character is very good. As a Chinese American, Ruby returned to Asia again for work reasons, a place that her grandfather's generation desperately wanted to leave but missed. She examines Hong Kong as an unfamiliar returnee, and bows to reflect. The Hong Kong presented at this time is more objective than the Hong Kong people in "Lushan". For example, Lan Kwai Fong, singing, fortune-telling, piracy, prosperous and noisy, are presented one by one. The storyline does not drag on, and two nights tell a relationship. As for whether this relationship is reasonable, there is no comment. But the director is on the side of love, and the ending seems ambiguous, but it is self-evident.
