A gorgeous, swooning, overpoweringly erotic depiction of jealousy and obsession, lust and love without limits, from the internationally-feted director of SUZHOU RIVER, PURPLE BUTTERFLY and SUMMER PALACE.

Nanjing, present day, spring time. Wang Ping’s wife suspects him of adultery. She hires Luo Haitao to spy on him and discovers that her husband’s lover is a man, Jiang Cheng. It’s with this man that Luo Haitao and his girl friend, Li Jing, form a torrid love triangle. For all three, it’s the beginning of asphyxiating, sultry nights of physical abandon that exalt the senses. A sulfurous journey into the confines of jealousy and obsessive love.

在南京的一个春天，王平的妻子怀疑丈夫有外遇，委托罗海涛私家跟踪，由此发现丈夫和一个叫做江城的男人相恋。王平妻子到江城单位大闹，王平自杀。于此同时，罗海涛在跟踪江城的过程中对后者产生好感。两人关系越来越亲密。当江城和罗海涛情侣同时出游时，罗海涛的女友李静发现了二者的关系……

Ye Lou was born and grew up in Shanghai, a city he would film beautifully in his Suzhou River (2000). After studying cinema at the Beijing Film Academy, the gifted young man debuted in the film career as an assistant director, a producer and a short subjects director. His second feature Zhou Mo Qing Ren (1995) (Weekend Lover) was both a public and critical success, crowned by the Fassbinder Prize. In 1997, he accepted to produce “Super City“, a TV series for which he hired ten of the most promising names of the sixth-generation-directors. Three years later, he came to international prominence with Suzhou River (2000) , an ambitious artistic meditation on love and the status of woman in the rapidly changing Chinese society as well as a moving ode to his home town Shanghai.
