Wong Ka Yan writer-director Benny Lau presents another wistful story of young love in 90s Hong Kong in his sophomore feature When Sun Meets Moon. Kathy Yuen ( The Merger) & former child star Harashima Daichi from the 2003 classic Lost in Time offer a fresh new pairing for this rare Hong Kong entry in the pure love genre. Also co-starring Maggie Shiu, Lawrence Cheng, Aimee Chan, Danny Summer & Mark Lui, the youth romance evokes those heart-fluttering days of puppy love & the nostalgic sights & sounds of nineties Hong Kong.
In 1992, a rainstorm causes a citywide blackout. On that special night, astronomy enthusiast Moon (Kathy Yuen) runs into rebellious youth Sun (Harashima Daichi) by the sea, & the two soon fall in love. However, Moons mother (Maggie Shiu) fiercely disapproves of their relationship, & Sun gets sent to boarding school. With Suns family planning to emigrate soon, the two seem destined to separate, even as they try their hardest to hold on to each other.
