Sze Yin, a 40-year-old Hong Kong resident, specialises in innovation and has been attracting international attention with his invention of a new technology. He met Linlin at a technology exhibition in Berlin. Linlin was born in Xi'an and moved to the United States at the age of sixteen, completing her undergraduate studies in London. The second time they met in Berlin, they fell in love. However, when Shih Hsien had to return to Hong Kong for work, they could only maintain a long-distance relationship. ......
Three months after her return to Hong Kong, Yixin took the initiative to meet Sze Yin. They studied in the same secondary school and became acquainted because they often went to the same study room to study. When Sze Yin was 25 years old, he was once trapped in a self-constructed life and death trap, and in the end, it was Yee Sum who saved him. Now, Yixin is married with a five-year-old child, and they still have a lot of things to say that have not yet been said, but must be said, and Shih Hsien is about to leave for the new Berlin Science and Technology Fair. ......
How can Sze Yin reconcile his hopes and losses in the face of this eternal return to the past?

His wife Jane recounts a legend from the East about redemption… Frank resolves to visit the places he has destroyed and the people he’s wounded.

In the journey, he came across with various incompleted subjects: The white bone lady, The man without heart beat, The cat with a hole, The chairman ......
