Popular star Leon Lai leads a cast of singer/actors in Fruit Punch, a modern comedy directed by internationally-recognized filmmaker Clara Law (Autumn Moon, Floating Life). A group of five friends (Leon Lai, Hacken Lee, Remus Choy, Calvin Choy and Edmond So) leave their disparate careers in the Hong Kong work force and pool their talents to open their own business. But the going is tough, and soon the business folds. Undaunted, the five friends continue their attempts to make it in the world, and through all of their efforts, successes and failures, they manage to find some part of themselves amidst Hong Kong's fast-paced cosmopolitan culture. Long one of Hong Kong's top actor/singers, Leon Lai is joined in Fruit Punch by singer Hacken Lee, and the trio of Remus Choy, Calvin Choy and Edmond So, who comprise the popular band Grasshopper. Co-starring lovely idol singer Vivian Chow as Leon Lai's girlfriend, this winning look at the lives of Hong Kong youth is a lesser-known, but no less worthy effort from director Clara Law. YesAsia
