Lai and Ho, two handsome guys from Hong Kong (Tony Leung and Leslie Cheung, astonishing actors) carried to Argentina by the wings of desire. A fuck scene doesn't tell us that these men on holiday are lovers. Their Argentine adventure has all the hallmarks of a reunion, an attempt to start again. The two men leave each other, then get back together... From that moment on, Happy Together can be seen as the reportage of a gigantic domestic scene, with its share of great tenderness and real bitchiness. A magnificent film, one of the most beautiful in the world dealing with homosexuality. A haunting film driven by the only question that matters: how can we be happy together?
