Three Extremes: Dumplings
Sinopsis(1)
Mei is a trashy, former abortion doctor who shuttles back and forth across the HK-China border with benign-looking containers of glistening dumplings. Bound not for the family dinner table, these dumplings are of a special sort, and the preferred meal of a high-paying clientele who seek their famed youth-renewing powers. Qing is a nearing-40 former soap actress clinging to her youth and attempting to win back her philandering husband, who sucks down chicken fetuses in an attempt to maintain his own vigor. Regular meals at Mei's apartment only whet her appetite for eternally smooth skin, and trigger an ominous search for an even more potent variety of the dumplings' secret ingredient.

The film is incredible in the way it presents truly repulsive things. It pretends to be a good A-grade film, but what you see here... Honestly, there isn't much of it, the camera blurs the image or takes shots from angles where everything isn't clear, the editing is appropriately chosen, but the sounds that complete it all... And of course, you will understand what is actually happening. Amazing connection that trash can be visually truly beautiful, sometimes even kitschy. A very surprising film for me, and even though I really had to struggle during one scene not to throw up, this experience was overall worth it.

An interesting perverted premise, otherwise the film was meh.
