This is Ben Whishaw at his most ‘Ben Whishaw’. The British actor – who’s attached to the upcoming Mary Poppins remake – gives a sensitive, quietly devastating performance as Richard, a young man grieving the death of the love of his life, Kai (Andrew Leung, appearing in flashback, is equally as unfaltering).
Cheng Pei-pei plays Kai’s mother, Junn, who doesn’t speak English and didn’t know her son was gay. Richard’s tireless attempts to connect and communicate with her will bring tears to your eyes – we guarantee it.
