Ching-Ting Hsia

A synthetic tale of unruly mixed-up youth in a fettered affluent society. Mathieu, a theater actor, and Bruno, a mechanic, are two friends eager to leave Switzerland for a big journey. Their plan to escape is disrupted when Pauline, a successful actress visiting Geneva, enters their lives, stirring conflicting desires and challenging their dreams of exile.

This is a story about a common man who has extraordinary events in his mundane life. The film depicts the protagonist's turns of events in three eras, three seasons, three nights, in the same city, as told with reverse chronology.
