King’s Feast (dir. Ye Fengjin, China)
The movie starts in Dubai, where we are introduced to a mysterious artifact collector whose new target is to acquire every country’s first Olympic Gold medal. With the help of his trusty assistant and a goofy Chinese expert (played by Zhang Qiang from Buddha Palm Technique), they head over to Foshan with a large bag of money ready to do the deal.
Just one problem. They don’t know who or where the first Chinese Gold Medal Olympic Champion is!
At the same time, a struggling Real Estate Sales Agent and his beautiful co-worker have been tasked by the CEO to organise a huge sales event for the development – with the main attraction being Chinese Olympic Champions!
Jamais Vu (dir. Kazuhiro Taira, Japan)
A mysterious man suddenly appears in the living room of a single mother and upsets her life forever.
Don’t Look Down (dir. Olivier Ducastel and Jacques Martineau, France)
In a high-rise apartment, a woman and four men gather to share their experiences of a man that they have all been involved with, to their cost. In the main room, they talk, drink, dance, while one by one, each goes next door for a private moment of truth.
