Humanely queer

For a debut film for C.B. Yi, it's really a good film. Mood-setting visual, check. Music, check. ("Hello Anxiety" by Phum Viphurit!!) All the sexy boys, check. Clearly not the best Asian LGBTQ+ film of all time, but still a good one to watch.

The visual, story, and pace can be considered too generic and straight-up mimicking art films. But I still appreciate that they made it smooth and moderately paced, not putting too much cryptic cues, good enough not to induce yawn.

Now the story: The more you watch, the more you feel sad about Fei. He can stand with the daily life struggle of a sex worker, rejection of a family, criminalization from the largest mafia organization in the world, and even a close friend straight up admitting that he loves him.

But in the end, he can't stand the feeling of loneliness, the loneliness that is killing him slowly, anyway.

The story itself is very humane (and queer). I love it.
