Autumn Moon explores the anxiety of Hong Kong facing the Handover by narrating in a very sensitive way the encounter of a teenage Hong Kong girl about to immigrate to Canada and a young Japanese tourist freshly arrived in Hong Kong. The movie leads us to the inner world of those who travel and migrate, exposing their fear of loosing their own roots.
