After her boyfriend Hao's untimely death, Yin is left to operate their studio by herself. The devastated Yin stumbles upon “Closer”, a mobile application that bridges the communication between the living and the dead. Through it, Yin is reunited with a lifelike Hao with not only the same voice but the same personality, emotions and memories. After a brief return to normalcy where the reality of death is obliterated, the limitation of “Closer” eventually forces Yin to confront the inherent divide between the living and the dead. Can love last forever by staying closer?
