A bored yet curious yuppie couple experiments with alternative lifestyle.. an itchy triad boss gives the newest recruit his first lesson.. a pair of middle-aged cops/brothers coming out to each other in a public toilet.. a drunk sobered up to find his true love, only to find that he is too emotional for his own good.. and last but not least, two Filipino maids kicking, screaming, and fighting for their very own Tagalog Don Juan. It is a brash and perceptive look across Hong Kong's social strata with a fresh eye, uninhibited wit, and pop-infused energy and spirit. The 26-year-old local-born Western-educated first-timer shot the super-16mm feature film with a meager HK$200,000 budget in a remarkably efficient seven days. It was an accidental hit at this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival, where all screenings were sold out. Subsequently invited to a number of festivals in Japan, Europe and North America, Cross Harbour Tunnel continues to charm young hip audience
