Summary:
A romantic comedy usually involves a handsome man and a pretty lady. But will love blossom between a 'manly' woman and a 'womanly' man? The gender-bending pairing of the boyish Hainan and the girly Teochew begins with a lost bra. "More about companionship than grand romance| the fundamentally dialectical film is a clever| subversive riff on communication and connection that balances just the right amount of physical humour with witty| sharply delivered dialogue" (Hong Kong International Film Festival| 2011).
