Yiu-Kwok is a high school teacher, having a perfect family.  Good times don’t last long when a student, Choy-Nam, falls in love with him.  A midlife crisis mixing with pressure sends him into an emotional tailspin.  Everything seems to lead him towards Choy-Nam, the forbidden fruit.  History seems to repeat itself.
