I'll start by saying that if you aren't used to the explicity and the bizarre endings that characterise chinese gay movies, maybe this is not made for you.
Plot/Characters:
I don't know if it is just my personal taste, but I found this short pretty intriguing. The story is one of a kind I would say, or at least not one you could find everywhere. It is a short film so it doesn't show that much or doesn't explain in details what portrayed; but still it was able to express something.
The first thing I noticed is that most of the events take place at night, maybe because it is one of the quietest parts of the day so the perfect one to do things undisturbed; so suitable for Ting's purposes.
I have to admit that my first impression of him was of a young, certainly sensual, and cold boy. Cold because as we could see he didn't seem to care that much about his boyfriend, but to find more interesting everything related to his teeth. But towards the end of the short my perception of him changed. He may seem to be indifferent as before, but his eyes tell that there's something troubling him. When he watched the photos of him and Mark, his boyfriend, I realized that maybe it is not like he doesn't care about him, but he finds it hard to do so due to his "fetish". I believe that in some kind of way he feels guilty because he knows that he will never be able to love him, since he can't find pleasure in anything else with the exception of teeth-related stuff.

Cast: the acting wasn't one of the best I've ever seen, but it wasn't bad either. I liked the way the main actor interpreted Ting because in my opinion he was able to portray well his obsession.

Cinematography: the scenes were on point and conveyed perfectly the sense of obsession.

So in conclusion I didn't dislike watching this short film, but as said before I would recommend it only to those who appreciate ore are familiar with similar movies .

I'll start by saying that the music was great. I'm not a big fan of piano music and I'm not an expert either, but I really liked the melodies chosen for this movie. They set the right atmosphere and help us understand what the director meant when he chose "Melody of our love" as the title of the movie.

The story is simple and easy to follow, with no big twists and turns; with the exception of some events used to revive the plot. Despite it's simplicity, I appreciated the way the director portrayed different approaches to love.

We can clearly see from the beginning that Maki is more experienced and easygoing as regards sexual and emotional relationships, maybe also thanks to his extroverted temper; not to talk about the fact that he's also more confident about his sexual orientation. On the other hand Ruiku seems to be uncertain on what to do and clearly still has to put some thought into who he really is. Moreover his reluctant behavior could be linked at first to his introverted personality, but the more we watch the movie the more we realize that everything is caused by lack of love during his childhood; which made him overthink about his right to be loved by others.

Perhaps were right these differences that made them suitable for each other. As a fact we can't deny that they're the opposite one of the other, but this reconfirms the saying that opposites do attract each other.

Towards the end of the movie another theme is introduced but not quite developed. It is the corruption that occurs between teachers and students, which I have seen portrayed in many asian series and movies. But as I said in this one it is not quite developed and just used as a way to develop the story.

Also the end is an open ending, which left me quite disappointed; but overall I liked this movie and I would recommend it during a rainy day or to everyone who needs a pause.
