      Synopsis
      A political writer living in South Korea, a New Zealander writing an allegory on British colonialism and U.S. imperialism, is stabbed and left to die in a dark Seoul alley. His mind flashes through the possible reasons to his first encounter with a successful Korean violinist he fell madly in love with as he sees the events and pressures that conspired to tear them apart and led to his brutal stabbing.
