Description:

The 2004 Hong Kong film 2046, written and directed by Wong Karwai, is a captivating drama filmed in Shanghai. Serving as a loose sequel to Days of Being Wild and In the Mood for Love, the story follows the aftermath of Chow Mowans unconsummated affair with Su LiZhen in 1960s Hong Kong while adding unique science fiction elements. The plot centers on a writer who thinks he writes about the future, but his stories actually reflect his past. In his novel, a mysterious train departs for 2046, a place where people travel to recapture their lost memories and where nothing ever changes. Although no one who goes there ever returns, the writer is the sole exception. He chose to leave because he wanted to change. This acclaimed film beautifully captures nostalgia and lost love.
