Blue Gate Crossing
Directed by Yee Chih-yen
Produced by Trigram Films, Arc Light Films
A tender, melancholic coming-of-age story about first love and the painful complexity of desire when it doesn't align with reciprocation.
Yueh-chen has an obsession with her classmate Shihao, but is too shy to confess to him directly. She sends in her best friend, Kerou, to act as a go-between, and Shihao ends up falling for Kerou, who is not sure what to think of him.
