About this movie

Vivian Wu (THE PILLOW BOOK, EVE AND THE FIRE HORSE) plays Meili, an interpreter who becomes an angel of vengeance when her husband is shot dead on his way to sign a joint venture contract. The appearance of an enigmatic American (Richard Burgi of TV's DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, TV's ONE TREE HILL) who claims to be a kind of troubleshooter for companies draws her into a web of deceit, love, and guilt in this time-bending murder mystery that is part MEMENTO and part LOVER.
