BLUE MOON

Set in contemporary Taiwan, the film's characters are young, mainly lower middle-class people, attempting to deal with the pressures of urban life. The film is named after the belief that special opportunities are granted following the appearance of two full moons in a month. This second moon is called a blue moon. If a person sees a blue moon and prays sicerely, he is given a second chance in life. Blue Moon is organized in five 20-minute reels, but the film has been made so that these reels can be projected in any order or sequence. In other words, the story line and character developments are determined by chance, thus providing its characters with countless possibilities or second chances.
