Director / Producer / Screenwriter: Chan Ka-keong Cinematographer: Meng Xiaoqing Cast: Doug Chan, Dicky Tsang, Wang Ping, Candice Lam, Kayden Lei, Li De 2017 | Colour | 92’| DCP In Cantonese and Putonghua with Chinese and English subtitles Chan Ka-keong already showcased his abilities to create an order in a chaotic narrative and to handle the time element in his directorial debut. The story, with intertwining plotlines and several development directions, is told in an interesting way and can serve as a mirror of today’s Macao. The film tells the stories of six characters in Macao today: a sex worker who travelled to the city and wanted to make some easy money, but always got cheated, a chauffeur of a rich family who was in dire straits because of a huge debt, a coward man who betrayed his wife, a young girl who had a crush on her piano teacher, a ‘clown’ who followed his lover with strange actions, and a naïve child who imagined himself flying to the moon. The plotlines are intertwined and narrated in an unconventional yet comprehensible way. As the title suggests, things change like passing rain. Meticulously produced, the film keeps a pleasant tone and lets the audience leave a smile and a sigh after watching. Post-screening Talk in Cantonese Speaker: Chan Ka-keong
