What is love in the time of Coronavirus, when people are separated in both space and time? Wing returns to Hong Kong from Taiwan upon learning that her estranged father is dying in a hospital but she has to undergo quarantine in a hotel. Talking to her father through the screen, Wing realises she can never forgive this old man who abandoned the family many years ago, while the other man, her husband, seems very far away in Taiwan. Isolated in the tiny hotel room, Wing battles alone with the diseases of body and mind, caused by old and new grievances.
