Synopsis 101 minutes :
Even though this modern city returned to
China more than 20 years ago, an entry permit
is strictly required to cross the border
between Hong Kong and other cities in China.
BIG BROTHER is one of those poor types that
regularly enters and leaves Hong Kong. Big
Brother married his daughter MUI off to an old
Hong Kong fisherman, SECOND BROTHER. Mui
suffers from a medical disorder that will drive
her to madness if she doesn't have sex all the
time. Making the best of a bad situation, the
two men pimp her out. In the loneliness of the
fishermen's bay, only sex brings Mui joy. And
the money helps support her family. LITTLE BRO
makes his living around the bay. He falls in
love with Mui after a wondrous sexual
experience and later becomes her third
"husband". Amongst the men, he is the most
learned and should have the strongest moral
compass. But for the sake of bringing Mui
happiness, Little Bro follows in the other
men's footsteps and finally becomes her co-
exploiter too.
