Lok Chak Shun, a 1960s Hong Kong premature survivor, sought escape in street comics where he met Lung, a teen gangster mentoring him into petty crimes. When Shun’s autobiographical comics were altered at school, he publicly shamed the vandal—a reclusive art student departing soon. Overwhelmed by guilt, he then uncovered his father’s infidelity and Lung’s escalating gang war. Amid the turmoil, a severed kite string crystallized his crossroads: embracing Lung’s chaos led to imprisonment; pursuing the girl forged an artistic career marred by her abrupt emigration; confronting his father shattered the family, exiling him into solitude. Each path mirrored Hong Kong’s fractured identity—caught between colonial twilight and generational rebellion. The kite, once a childhood solace, now symbolized life’s irreversible pivots: a single frayed thread unraveling into lifetimes of regret or reinvention, bound by choices made in the breath between adolescence and consequence.
