In the Mood for Love

Two couples meet and live in a building mainly inhabited by the Shanghai community. The husband of one couple, Chau, meets the beautiful wife of the second couple, Li-chun. As their spouses spend a lot of time away from home at work, Chau and Li-chun become good friends, often meeting with the landlord to play games and discuss the latest gossip. As their respective partners spend more and more time away, Chau and Li-chun begin to realize that their spouses are having an affair.
