Description:

The film follows Vicky as she reflects on her past romantic relationships with Hao Hao, a passionate yet unpredictable artist, and Jack, an ambitious lawyer with a charming smile. Set against the backdrop of Taipei's vibrant nightlife, neon lights illuminate the streets where these encounters transpired, shaping Vicky's experiences and personal growth.As Vicky recalls her tumultuous relationship with Hao Hao, we witness the thrilling highs and crushing lows of their love story, marked by moments of intense passion and unyielding support, but also fraught with trust issues and volatile disagreements. The film then delves into the more stable, yet perhaps less exciting, relationship Vicky shared with Jack—a man who provided her with a sense of stability and security, but whom she ultimately found lacking in the spark and excitement she craved.Through these memories, the audience is treated to an exploration of love, intimacy, and self-discovery, as Vicky grapples with what truly matters most in her relationships and her life. The neon lights of Taipei's clubs serve as a backdrop for both the exhilarating and difficult moments Vicky experienced while navigating love and heartbreak, painting a vivid picture of one woman's journey towards finding herself and her place in the world.
