Twilight's Kiss (SUK SUK)
Dir. Ray Yeung. 92 mins. Cantonese with English Subtitles.
TWILIGHT’S KISS (SUK SUK) presents the story of two men in their twilight years: Pak, 70, a taxi driver who refuses to retire, and Hoi, 65, a retired single father. Both men spent their lives in the closet, but their brief initial encounter unleashes long suppressed desires. As both men recount and recall their personal histories, they also contemplate a possible future together.
