Synopsis:
After the death of Lin’s boyfriend Bao, Lin heads to Taipei and meets Josh, who has also just arrived in Taipei as a new waiter at the Stone bar in Red House. Slowly a new relationship sparks between Lin and Josh. However, the relationship turns complicated in Red House, involving the clothing store owner Sean and his friend Lian. Josh ends up in the hospital. Meanwhile, a fire breaks out and almost destroys Red House. Lin’s search for his boyfriend Josh leads him to discover a rumor of an affair. Starr Wu’s debut feature is a strikingly modern adaptation of one of China’s Four Great Classics, from Cao Xueqin’s 18th century novel Dream of the Red Chamber, but set in Taipei’s iconic LGBT location, Red House. The film displays an honest and natural depiction of the gay life in Taipei, as well as exploring despair and hope. “The Story of the Stoneis provocative and fun, a pumped-up retooling of the illustrious 700 page epic for the Grindr generation.”- Matthew Baren, CINEMQ.
