In the aftermath of never-ending disasters and epidemics, fewer and fewer people are still surviving.
They said the apocalypse has come.
K walks alone in the long-abandoned gay sauna. Human body contact has become an anecdote of the last century. The decadent and damp smell permeates, and only an old tree seems to have taken root here, stretching its withered branch, seemingly longing for something.
Director CHOU Tung-Yen uses a sci-fi fantasy to recount the loneliness of modern people trapped in times of epidemics and isolation and depicts the longings for others’ touches and the endless search for self in a near-future scenario.
