Guy和Henry 兩個互相愛慕的男人,為達「一生承諾」毅然由香港遠道到加拿大溫哥華註冊結婚。在香港後殖民地時代,中國傳統家庭的意識形態下,二人如何透過婚姻,體現雙方家人對自己建立家庭的期望?在相對開放的加拿大成婚,西方思想又對新人造成了什麼影響?
紀錄片導演翁志文跨越性向視點,並訪問不同人士,包括香港平機會主席林煥光,探討本地同性婚姻法例的問題。
Can two people form a family solely for the sake of love? Guy and Henry, a couple deeply in love, had willingly travelled all the way from Hong Kong to Vancouver, Canada in order to get married, when such marriage is not even recognized legally in their hometown. Why did they made such a big effort to do this? What is the true meaning of marriage?
Under the mentality of Chinese families in a post-colonial society like Hong Kong and through their marriage, how did the couple realize their family members’ hope regarding their union? As the couple got married in a relatively open society like Canada, how are the newlyweds influenced by the western society’s mentality and its marriage regulations?
