A fractured Hong Kong Family tries to mend itself back together in the turbulent and realistic family drama from new director Eric Tsang Hing Weng, who was a winner of Hong Kong's 5th First Feature Film Initiative. Veterans Teresa Mo and Tse Kwan Ho are the mother and father of the troubled family, while MIRROR's Edan Lui ( Chilli Laugh Story ) plays the estranged son in a performance that earned him a Best New Performer nomination at the 41st Hong Kong Film Awards. Edan's MIRROR bandmate and Ossan's Love co-star Anson Lo also appears in the film, as do Hedwig Tam ( The First Girl I Loved ) and Angela Yuen ( Chilli Laugh Story ). In Chinese tradition, the winter solstice festival is supposed to be a time of unity and harmony, but one Hong Kong family fell apart during a winter solstice dinner eight years ago. Uncle Ming (Joey Leung) clashed with his mother (Fung So Bar) over pent-up grievances and left in anger. Ming's sister Ling (Teresa Mo) brought up divorce to her stunned husband Chun (Tse Kwan Ho), who threatened her with a knife in the ensuing argument. Their son Yeung (Edan Lui) intervened and got into a physical fight with Chun. Afterwards, Yeung moved out of the family home. Eight years later, family relations are still very much strained, and Yeung refuses to acknowledge his father. Yeung's cousin Joy (Angela Yuen) returns to Hong Kong with news of her father's death, and reaches out to family members for a winter solstice reunion dinner.
