Overview
En souvenir de son père, qui calligraphiait son visage à chaque anniversaire, Nagiko se met en quête de l'amant-calligraphe idéal qui usera de son corps en lieu et place de papier. Après bien des échecs, elle rencontre Jérôme, un traducteur d'origine anglaise qui la convainc d'être le pinceau plutôt que le papier.

Un film magnifique, sensuel et envoûtant autour du couple formé par VIVIAN WU (Le Dernier Empereur, Entre Ciel et Terre) et EWAN McGREGOR (Trainspotting, Moulin Rouge).
