Adapted from the internet novel "Beijing Story," this is the story of a young gay student and his relationship with an older man set against the uprising of Tiananmen Square. (Strand Releasing)

Qian Long's mother returns to the palace from her religious pilgrimage and the Queen's action's become more ridiculous than ever. More trivial scenes than ever are added, only serving to give some with light humor. The concentration in the sequel is clearly on the love between couples. Two new important characters are also added--the border princess Hom Herng and her lover, Mon Don. Their conflict become an integral point in the sequel. (imdb)
