Three interrelated tales inspired by forensic crime dramas and linked by the theme of death. A morgue assistant named Fubo, someone who cleans up after the coroner has collected forensic data, watches gut-wrenching autopsies and mutilated corpses on a daily basis. Tragically enough, Fubo encounters his son only when he examines him as a corpse. But strangest of all is his oddball colleagues, when they throw a birthday party for a dead child in the autopsy room.
In another part of town, a professional killer begins to view his job with guilt. This tormented soul begins to act erratic much to the dismay of his triad bosses. The third character is a Portuguese cook who works in a prison in Macau. His job is to cook for inmates on death row, and to record their dying wishes. This unholy trio, who practically live with dead people and consider corpses as their family, find out in different ways that the most beautiful moments of life are often those closest to death. |

Guns don't kill people, it is people who kill people.
The runaway pistol, which has a life of its own, traveled from the underbelly of Mongkok (Hong Kong) to seedy Shenzhen (China) across the border. It found its way into the hands of a motley crowd of characters, and transformed the lives of a sex worker, a small-time hood, a middle class family, troubled teenagers, a suicidal fisherman, illegal immigrant and innocent and not-so-innocent bystanders, each with their own pain, loss, regrets and dreamsK The Runaway Pistol fashioned a one-of-a-kind road movie. It was a complex kaleidoscope of images with subversive and surreal intensity. It was a cruel fairy tale about a city on the verge of a moral meltdown. |
