CJ Sheu The News Lens International [T]he fiction and documentary aspects don't hang together very well. ... If only Longing could've gotten to that ending sooner. Oct 5, 2021 Full Review Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy The strong acting, the explicit-yet-stylish eroticism, and the serious take on female sexuality keep this film far away from the exploitation genre.

Audience Member Sexual desire of a married middle class young woman manifested to be a man in her dreams. She couldn't help but let this destroy her life. Didn't expect such a film from China. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
