Permanent residence

Because he did not believe that he could live beyond the age of thirty, Lee Chia Hao began to work doubly hard at an early age and achieved in his career what the average man could not reach. However, in the gym, he met Hung Chi Jie, a man who deeply attracted him in terms of appearance, interests, and speech. Like a couple in a homosexual relationship, they eagerly and boldly explored each other through sports, boxing, traveling, and drinking together. On deserted beaches and in the deep night by the pool, they freely enjoyed their naked intimacy, feeling that irreplaceable passion and resonance. A charming Israeli man was always able to provide warmth and comfort that could not be obtained from others. On the night of his thirtieth birthday, when all the people he deeply loved had left him far behind in despair, he made a secret and eternal agreement with Hung Chi Jie. After experiencing several life-and-death separations, he retreated to the remotest part of the world, where he thought he would never see Hung Chi Jie again. But unexpectedly, what awaited him there was an eternal and heart-breaking promise. Following last year's film "No Field City," which focused on Hong Kong's baseball field, director Yun Xiang's second feature film, Permanent Residency, delves deeper into the subject of same-sex love and will also participate in this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival. In Permanent Residency, Yun Hai falls in love with a boy, and the two develop a long and profound relationship, but the other party is heterosexual. The camera in the film travels to places like Japan, Australia, Israel, and Thailand. Ultimately, Yun Hai devises a way to transcend life and death and cross boundaries. Permanent Residency is about a boy who is very fascinated by the subject of death. He spends his whole life thinking about the meaning of life and whether there is an afterlife, and if so, how to prepare beforehand in order to reunite with the people he has loved in life. This film, starring Lee Chia Hao, Hung Chi Jie, and others, features more daring nude scenes and will have its first public screening at this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival.
