This is the 34th film in the Stuttgart Fantasy Film Festival.
Wang Xueming knocks over a man while driving at night. He gets out to check
the man, and he's unconscious. He drives away, but he feels guilty, so he
returns to the man. He's now dead. Wang rolls the body down a slope at the
side of the road, into long grass.
A few days later Wang sees a woman putting up posters of her missing husband
in town. It's the man he knocked over. Wang wants to get close to her. He follows her home and cuts
the cables of her air conditioning. He leaves a card offering air
conditioning repair. She calls him, he repairs the air conditioning, and then
the two become friends.
Eventually the body is found. Wang confesses to the wife that he hit him with
his car, but the cause of death is gunshot wounds. The man was involved in
criminal activities before his death, and now Wang is also threatened.
This is an unusual drama, not just the story, but also the style. It isn't
told chronologically. It keeps jumping forwards and backwards.
We see some events twice from different perspectives, which makes the
film more interesting.
