In frozen northeast China, middle-aged lives collide in Geng Jun's Golden Horse-winning black comedy. A trapped husband comes out for a young barber. A lesbian couple recruits a gay hairdresser as their sperm donor—then installs surveillance cameras to track his every move. A restaurant owner dreams of uniting all the town's gays. Shot in stark black and white, Geng Jun (Free and Easy) finds absurdist humor in desperate intimacies: dumplings made together become foreplay, hidden cameras create paranoid desire, a couple's control spirals into dark farce. Neither pitying nor romanticizing, Geng captures love between men who've waited decades to touch—where a barbershop becomes sanctuary, surveillance breeds its own subversion, and tenderness survives in the coldest places.
