CGiii Comment
A 22 year old is barely interesting...but, to embark down the autobiographical route is bewilderingly misguided.
Lee obviously thinks he is utterly fascinating and proves it with this audacious autobiographical piece of wasted film.
15 or so years later...he still hasn't proven himself to be of any intrinsic use to the filmmaking world...but, credit where credit is due - he persists like a genital wart.
This is utter rubbish.

The(ir) Blurb...
A filmmaker who's Chinese, 22, and gay talks about his work and love life with an unseen friend behind the camera. We also watch four of his short films. "Hysterio Passio" conjures images of men's passions. In "Matricide," a lawyer asks a young gay Chinese why he killed his mother on Christmas morning. In "Key in the Heart," a heroine (an Asian man in drag) pursues vampires. In "Fall, 1990," college students meet their roommates, and Jimmy, an edgy scholarship boy without a family, is slowly brought to an understanding of love by the callow Byron. "Flow" begins with a satiric look at the vectors of viruses and ends with a chat with our fictive filmmaker's hip mother.
