CGiii Comment

It looks and sounds as if this film took 90 minutes to make.

Intensely annoying characters will have you switch off within the first five minutes.

You are strongly advised to do so - because, it doesn't get any better.

The(ir) Blurb...

Feng is a gay Beijing high school student who shares his home and room with his twin sister Wen. While never fully blown, his attractions toward his sister are non the less, obsessive. But Wen is now growing too old for his attentions and is ready to make a life of her own.
Enlisting his best friend (who just happens to be gay), Feng tries to involve his sister in a relationship that he can control. Yet his plan back fires in a series of ways that leads to an unexpected but wonderful conclusion.
