"Writer-director J.R. Hughto’s idiosyncratic approach to voyeurism challenges cinema’s visual dominance with scenes shown in chronological order in a film that merges past, present and future aurally, while also using its audio to question what is authentic and what is a lie, what is real and what is playback. Henry (Brian McGuire) and Charlie (Sonja Kinski) explore this thorny philosophical terrain together as they rehearse events soon to come and listen to previous takes in a futile attempt to predict outcomes; simultaneously, they plumb the depths of their emotions without ever getting to the bottom of anything, or each other. That is because Henry and Charlie are, like most great characters and all real people, in the end unknowable."

Police leading the protest. Almost as if the government wanted them to protest.
Protests at Japanese embassy in Beijing over the Diaoyu Islands (钓鱼岛及其附属岛屿).
Rough translation: “Japan, the Diaoyu Islands belong to China”

Beijing Ikea on a Sunday night. For the record, this now the 5th fist fight I’ve seen in my 9 months here.
Most popular theory given for the fight by other Ikea customers: They were probably fighting over money matters (ie. An Inheritance)
Most popular comment on the fight: How could they do it in front of their children?
