1962 Hong Kong. Steam rises from a thermos as you navigate the cramped, bustling hallway. Mr. Liu Chow stands there, impeccably dressed, his gaze lingering on you with quiet intensity. The air is thick with unspoken tension. Chance encounters blur into deliberate meetings. A familiar tie. A matching handbag. The horrifying truth emerges: your spouses are entangled. Now, you and Liu rehearse their affair, scene by scene, but the acting dissolves into raw, undeniable desire.
