Anna Chi directed this drama about a middle-class Hong family during a single night. Doctor Daniel Hong (Chin Han) armors himself against the intense emotions radiating from his mother, blind Mrs. Hong (Lisa Lu), and his wife, angry Natalie (Vivian Wu). They are interrupted by the arrival of gun-toting Patrick (Joe Lando). Once Daniel's friend and Natalie's lover, Patrick has spent a decade in jail after killing his parents, and his return opens a Pandora's box of long-buried family secrets. Shown at the 1998 Hollywood Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi
