Synopsis:
With the Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony as backdrop, we see two men and their break-up story. This whole movie is filmed in one 11-minute-long shot. At the time of the opening ceremony, we are in the flat of two men, one of them is leaving, the other one wants him to stay, but it seems time has already run out for them. The silent mood in the film is underlined by the long shot. Through the hints of the actors' behaviour and the metaphors found in the tableau, the film attempts to show us the relationship between the Beijing Olympics and Chinese people as seen from another angle.
