Sélection officielle Un Certain Regard - Cannes 2001

Beijing 198, Chen Handong is the sucessful boss of a brokerage firm. Among the people who work with him, only Liu Zheng, his faithful business partner, knows about his taste for young men. When penniless Lan Yu leaves his native countryside to study architecture in town he runs into Liu Zheng who advises him to hire himself out to the owner of a gay club.

Handong, who happens to be in that club on he same evening, won't hear of it. He takes Lan Yu to his place and introduces him to seemingly new sexual practices. Exploring the tension between social conventions and desire for freedom, Lan yu is HongKong's Stanley Kwan's elegant and sensual new film.
