Wiki.

A Lingering Face (Chinese: 非常夏日; pinyin: Fēicháng xiàrì; lit. 'A curious summer day') is a 2000 Chinese film directed by Lu Xuechang. The film is Lu's second after 1997's The Making of Steel. Compared to that earlier film, which was plagued with censorship problems, A Lingering Face's production and release was relatively free of problems or obstacles.
