The sleazy behavior of "respectable" middle-aged men, bidding on women and howling like animals, as seen through the eyes of a woman who's wise beyond her years (Chen Xuanyu). Her gaze reflects mild shock and yet it's knowing, as she's aware of how men are and how to take care of herself. As they sit around the dinner table talking about her virginity, she calmly tells them she's had boyfriends, a priceless moment. The film is stylish and had a clear point of view, yet managed to be offbeat. Case in point, I loved the fun dance number which came out of nowhere. I only wish this had been longer.
