The story revolves around a Spring (To), a hitman from mainland China who is on a mission in Hong Kong with his partner Setting Sun (Hui). However, Spring falls ill and comes under the care of a screenwriter by the name of Soya (Wong) and they find themselves developing into a tight and everlasting friendship.
As of yet, the film has been generally received neutrally. Chan Hing-Ka's vision has been criticised for having been "poorly paced." [1]
