The Yuppie Fantasia

A breezy, chatty comedy of office flirtations and marital wobbles, light on its feet and fond of its flawed hero.

Overview: Marital ups and downs and extramarital flings provide the background to this uproarious tale of life in an advertising agency. Yuppie ad-man Leung Foon separates from his similarly career-focused wife Ann, tries to get back together with his former girlfriend, and flirts with his woman boss, before questioning whether he was better off where he started.
How it feels: Light, satirical, romantic and melancholic. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Love, work, identity, betrayal
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
