Film description

Lan Yu is a sensitive student of architecture who comes to Beijing from a northern province. There, he meets a wealthy, cynical entrepreneur, and the two become involved in an affair. Despite all their differences, their turbulent relationship, with all its ups and downs, will last for many years. In the background, China is rapidly modernizing and opening to the world, creating opportunities that have never existed there before. Can true feelings survive in such a crazy world?

This film adaptation of the scandalous Chinese novel published anonymously on the Internet, became an instant classic moving melodrama in the canon of Asian LGBT cinema. Kwan was able to shoot "Lan Yu" in Beijing, turning the capital of China into one of the most important characters of the film. The set design and costumes were created by William Chang himself – the master co-creator of all of Wong Kar Wai's greatest successes!
