Synopsis

Guohui and Peiling were childhood sweethearts who met again after years of being apart and became a couple.

Through the ever-changing landscape, Guohui and Peiling realise that what is transitory is also eternal.

◆Director's Message
After living in America for three years, I returned to Singapore to find a different city than the place I grew up as a child. For this film, romance is a vehicle to tell the story of change - two lovers who had to part because of their inability to understand each other; a wall that exists in even the most intimate relationships. Hearts have changed and memories displaced; from childhood heartlands to the metropolitan city. Only the motif of water remains the same; in the pools where they learnt swimming as children and the waters that stands between Singapore and an offshore island.
