Traces Wong Kar-Wai's perennial themes of time, love, and loss, and examines the political implications of his films, especially concerning the handover of former British colony Hong Kong to the People's Republic of China. This book covers a range of Wong's work, from his first film, "As Tears Go By", to "2046".

Analyzes the theatrical releases of Austrian film director Michael Haneke, including "The White Ribbon", winner of the 2009 Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
