SYNOPSIS

This should be a story about love. Love, gender, and sexuality can bring about tremendous happiness and storms, at the same time, on people’s lives. This film tries to look at these at the closest distance possible.

The film made by a lesbian couple is about a gayman’s bar. The two women came to this bar and became friends to people frequent the bar. “They really are the most beautiful femmies glowing in the dark,” thought to the director herself. And that initiated the making of this film.

Just two months before its closure, this gay bar named Corner’s, the owner suggested to Zero that, “why not make a documentary about the last days of Corner’s?” The film attempts to break free from conventional documentary filmmaking.

Like poetry, it tries to capture the thrill of love, as well as reflections on life. We often find ourselves do not fit in to the worlds we live in, yet, for all of us appeared in the film, being homosexual is the way to happiness, simply because it is closer to what we are at heart.

We fall in and out of love, of happiness and despair…but the pursuit of “happiness” is a subject that no one can avoid. The flow of life may be driven or turbulent, but we swim and drift in the ways that we are allowed.

The story is told in a foreign language to hide the awkwardness in telling one’s own self. The distance created by a foreign language echoes the inevitable in life. Hope this somewhat difficult narration can help more people not feel lonely. What unites this film is the atmosphere we all feel at gay/lesbian bars: loneliness and warmth, distant yet comforting, and with a tint of happiness.
