A 2010 movie starring starring Aarif Lee, Janice Man & Janice Vidal. And the story utilizes various songs and themes that are related to late famous Hong Kong pop-star Leslie Cheung
” Ever since Wing (Janice Vidal) was a toddler, her father and grandfather weaved the tale that Winnie’s mother works for Santa Claus. Until Wing turns twenty does the incredible truth finally dawns on her when she accidentally opens a freezing chamber in his grandfather’s laboratory and resurrects a mysterious young woman inside. And this woman is none other than her long lost mother, Gigi (Janice Man), who has been cyronically frozen since a fatal car accident twenty years ago.
Still very much a teenager, Gigi is shaken not only by the presence of a daughter physically older than her but also by the devastating news that her idol Leslie Cheung has passed away during her long slumber. To make up for lost time, she sets off with Wing in search of her boyfriend, Kit (Aarif Lee), who is Wing’s biological father. The Kit that Gigi used to know was a dashingly handsome young man fully convinced he would become a pop star some day. When Gigi and Winnie finally locate him, he has already dwindled into a grumpy middle-aged vagabond having his life sucked out of him. When the newly met mother and daughter finally manage to rekindle the fire within Kit, he realizes all too late that Gigi’s days on this brave new world are actually numbered.”
Editor’s Note: The core relationship of the movie is not about Wing & Gigi but more on Gigi and Kit. The sentimental indulgence walk with incessant flashbacks to Gigi and Kit’s high school love. Enjoy!
