A romantic comedy starring Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng. A couple apparently enjoys their wealth, but they are actually thieves. Was gorgeous jewelry the reason for their divorce? Their tactics toward love and jewelry are magnificent and thrilling. It seems that witty romance is also Johnnie To’s specialty.

Director: Johnnie To

The debut feature of Vic Chou, star of “Love You Ten Thousand Years” from the Competition section, is Johnnie To’s romantic movie. A couple in love has a quarrel over trifles, and soon after that, the man dies in a accident. Three years later, the man appears, looking much as he did three years ago… A step away from his established hard-boiled movies, To has created a fantasy film, depicting a couple’s bittersweet emotion.
