Synopsis
The fairy tale of childhood is that our lives will follow an ideal trajectory. Destiny decides otherwise for Wing-Kai who becomes bedridden, paralysed from the neck down after a car accident. The monotonous hospital life depresses the young man. Years later, he meets a young girl who is caring for her boyfriend in vegetative state, believing that her love will wake him up eventually. Wing-Kai ridicules her innocent optimism. When the young man recovers miraculously, hope reawakens in Wing-Kai who begins rehabilitation training with great fervour. However, time passes and everything remains the same. Sinking into even deeper despair, Wing-Kai tries to regain control over his own destiny.
