- The film explores the feelings of both joy and pain associated with the feeling of love at first sight done through limited dialog and using acting and music to tell the story. The subtext of the film is how Asian men are often viewed within American gay culture as something less-then or inferior to other races and therefore undesirable. Discrimination within discriminated communities is just as 'bad' as anywhere else in society if not worse, something most people would not expect from those who know what it is like to be despised. This subtext of the film adds to the strong emotions of the main theme by adding the extra layer of low self esteem which in and of itself is a real problem within the gay community because of being gay. Finally, the film explores questions without answers so that the audience can think about these important concepts of love, race and culture.—Anonymous
- Vince is an Asian-American guy casually enjoying dinner alone at his favorite restaurant when a handsome Latin guy named Frankie decides to "hit" on him. Vince is a bit annoyed yet polite to Frankie and at times even makes fun of Frankie's nervous attempts to express interest and get a date out of him. Vince makes it clear he isn't interested in a date or dating, yet somehow Frankie manages to get him over to his apartment and even make Vince fall for his charm and good looks. After their night together, Vince ends up with the feeling of "love at first sight," but begins to think Frankie is unresponsive or at least not having the same intense feelings. This leads Vince into a very lonely state of fantasy, sexual obsession, confusion, pain, and him dealing with his own low self-esteem and negative body image as an Asian gay man.—Scott Eriksson
