Revolt is youth. The story centres around a teacher’s pet who strives his best only to become the eternal runner-up, and a pair of intelligent but diametrically different step-siblings. Set in 2012 during the transition to the new academic structure for senior secondary education and higher education, the young students reconsider and challenge the limits of sense and sensibility through seven exam questions. In their wet dreams, all rules go loose.

A young couple enjoys playing hide-and-seek in the city. Every time See would give Pong a little clue to catch her in the crowd by 3 am. Perhaps this is just a rehearsal for bidding farewell – to create some good memories before losing each other. After losing her, he would still look around to search for those familiar scenes and discover some new sceneries he has overlooked.

Liu Yang He poster

Liu Yang He, a landmark in Hunan province, is not only the film’s original title but also a well-known Communist folk song in China. It was written during the Agrarian Reform that precedes the Cultural Revolution. Youngsters were sent to farmlands and factories to experience intense labour. They sang to praise Chairman Mao. Kah-kah (Rain Lau) was permanently injured in an industrial accident during that time. When Kah-kah meets this amputated client (Ko Hon-man), they feel sympathy with each other and turn this sympathy into a possibility of love as if they were flowing into a river of no return. Here, Rain Lau’s sophisticated performance resembles her award-winning role in Queen of Temple Street (1990).
