第二次初恋 Second First Love

Eight years after they were teen lovers, Jake and recently engaged Fi meet to their surprise after the death of a friend. Inadvertently left alone together in a flat for the evening, they tread over old ground and discuss life as adults, finding the connection between them has faded nowhere near as much as they expected.

夜未央 My Half Night

My Half Night With Him is a haunting, visually poetic drama that traces the quiet disintegration of a relationship between Bee, a Hong Kong-born artist in London, and El, her emotionally withdrawn partner. Once deeply in love, their bond has eroded into silence, routine, and unspoken regret. Set against the decaying intimacy of their flat and the city’s atmospheric undercurrents, the film unfolds in lyrical vignettes, blurring memory, dream, and reality.

As Bee struggles to assert her voice in the art world, she finds unexpected mentorship from renowned artist Andrew Serrano—reigniting her creativity but stirring inner conflict. Meanwhile, El, working at a talent agency, becomes quietly obsessed with his boss’s turbulent relationship, seeing reflections of his own emotional stagnation. Their growing distance is marked by ritualistic gestures—Bee’s silent prayers at a Buddhist shrine, El’s meticulous ironing of her clothes—small acts that speak volumes.

Surreal encounters intensify their isolation: Bee wanders through dreamlike spaces, from a surveillance-filled school to a hidden concert hall sanctuary, while El is shaken by a fleeting kiss from a mysterious girl on CCTV. Amid rising anti-immigrant tensions, they briefly reconnect, not as lovers but as ghosts of a shared past.

The film culminates in quiet resolution—Bee adopts a dog, embracing simple loyalty; El accepts their parting. Her final words—“All these brief encounters… they seem to mean more than they should”—capture the film’s essence: a meditative, emotionally rich exploration of love, loss, identity, and the fleeting connections that shape us.

孤女照夜 Girl in Darkness

As her homeland fractures under the weight of a spectral predator, a woman learns too late that the key to stopping it has been perched on her shoulder all along.

In a fractured near-future China where night bleeds into day and memory haunts the landscape, a lone woman journeys across ice-bound realms to save her crumbling home—Shanxian. Along the way, she rescues a silver-tongued raven named Wu, whose wit masks a terrible secret: he is the Grim Invincible, a monstrous embodiment of humanity’s buried rage and sorrow. As dream and reality blur—through burning trains, spectral children, oceanic megalodons, and cities that shift like sand—Han Tian must confront not only the beast beside her, but the grief that shaped her. A lyrical fable of betrayal, resilience, and metamorphosis, Girl in Darkness weaves myth and melancholy into a visually sumptuous odyssey where love is both wound and weapon, and every shadow holds a story waiting to be remembered.

不朽銀河 Mortal Joys

Four elite cosmonauts crash-land on a paradise that sees them not as pioneers—but as raw material for its next evolutionary leap.

As their bodies transform from within, the stranded space crew races to uncover whether the planet’s predatory mimicry is natural—or a weaponised experiment from home.

What begins as a mission of colonisation becomes a fight for identity, sanity, and survival against a world that learns from them faster than they can adapt. Developed over a year in close collaboration with the late Star Wars, The Dark Crystal and Return to Oz producer Gary Kurtz, Mortal Joys fuses hard science fiction with psychological and body horror, exploring themes of genetic colonialism, ecological sentience and the fragility of human control in an alien wilderness.
