Beautifully directed, faultlessly performed, Wang Chao's third feature has a generosity of spirit and a general sense of melancholy that combine to offer an emotionally satisfying experience and provides a piercing insight into contemporary China. A country schoolteacher comes to the city in search of his missing son. He is helped by a kindly policeman and by his daughter, who struggles to keep from him the sordid reality of her job as a 'comfort girl' in a trendy karaoke bar. But her boss and lover, the club-owner, is well known to the cop.
