From a Peking apartment, a woman is writing postcards to a man in London. We don’t see the woman or the man, there’s only the camera contemplating Beijing in a melancholy eye. Each postcard is a long static shot. The woman’s voice tells her loneliness in a rapidly changing China: highways, labour workers, meat market, people in the street… All the postcards return – address unknown. Her lover seems to have disappeared from the other side of the world. On a rainy night, she cancels her return flight to Europe.
