In this emotional film, Ge Weilong is a young girl who travels from Shanghai to Hong Kong to continue her studies. Unable to pay her tuition she asks for help from her aunt, Ms. Liang, who has a shady past. Gradually, she becomes her aunt’s puppet and ends up working for her by seducing rich and powerful men. However, Ge Weilong is fatally attracted to playboy George Qiao, whose goal is to marry a rich girl to support his wanton lifestyle.

The project is the brainchild of director, producer and screenwriter Ann Hui, who belongs to the New Wave movement in Hong Kong and has been acclaimed by critics for her previous works. From Summer Snow, The Postmodern Life of My Aunt and The Way We Are, to A Simple Life and The Golden Era, she has always excelled at making films that portray the inner lives and outer circumstances of women.

Don’t miss this screening of Love After Love at the CaixaForum, in Mandarin Chinese with Catalan subtitles.
