DRIFTERS

Er Di is the town ‘celebrity’. But only for the none-too-exceptional feat that he had been a stowaway, and a multiple failure at that. One time he succeeded and managed to live abroad for a number of years before he got caught and was repatriated. Back in his hometown he spends his days as a slacker, busy doing nothing. There is just one person on his mind: Xiao Nu from a travelling Shanghai opera troupe, another lonely soul leading a listless life. Something of a romance develops between them, but they don’t see any meaningful things happening in their lives.
