Last Song For You

久別重逢

Jill Leung’s captivating debut, Last Song For You, is a soulful, time-bending ode to lost love, shared memories, and music’s healing power. Spanning Hong Kong and Japan, and evoking the nostalgic spirit of 1990s Hong Kong cinema, this supernatural romance stars Cantopop legend Ekin Cheng as faded pop star So Sing Wah, who reluctantly travels to Japan with Summer (Natalie Hsu), the daughter of his high school crush, to scatter her mother’s ashes. Unwittingly, their journey transcends distance and time itself. Through flashbacks featuring rising star Ian Chan (Mirror), youthful dreams and passions are revived in this swooningly lyrical heartbreaker about second chances, bittersweet longing, and timeless resonance.
