All language subtitles for Beijing & New York 北京·紐約 (2015) V.O.S.Espanol

Welcome to New York!

Welcome!

I like that attitude.

If you squint, you can
see the Statue of Liberty.

Freedom!

Your English is very good.

We're going to do great
business together.

Business and pleasure together.

You've arrived on a
very special day for America.

4th of July.

The Anniversary of when
we achieved Independence.

This is it.

What you've been dream about.

Oh!

Wooh!

To us, stepping onto
American soil for the first time.

- Cheers.
- To America!

Mm.

Wow.

It's just like in
the Hollywood movies.

When we were kids, even going
to Beijing was a dream

let alone America.

Li Yan, about tonight

Don't worry, it's all been
taken care of

even tomorrow night.

Everyone is gonna be
there tonight at seven.

Tonight I might

not be able to make it.

What is it?

Something important came up
that I have to deal with.

But you're the host.

Get some rest first.

It'll help you with the jet lag.

I'm gonna come pick
you up at six thirty.

Pinky, pinky bowbell.

We're gonna be best friends
for a hundred years.

Whoever breaks is gonna
be a little puppy!

Seriously,
what do you want to do when you grow up?

Hmm, not sure.

I never really thought about it.

When I grow up, I'm gonna be
a famous violinist,

in America.

No, all over the world.

You're gonna be my biggest fan,

following me wherever I go.

In your dreams.

I don't want to be your
puppy following you

around everywhere.

It's not up to you.

Drinking Maotai in the US
isn't an easy task.

Thank you.

My boss always said he
can't take me anywhere.

Lenny, I never thought I would
see you in New York.

Out of all of us,

you've changed the most.

Without a doubt!

He is the youngest CEO in China.

- Am I right?
- Mm-hm.

You're just too
fucking awesome!

No, no, no.

Fucking awesome,
I'm telling you.

I just got lucky, that's all.

Not like you all who
have bachelors and PhDs.

PhDs?

Let's drink up!

Wait, wait.

I almost forgot.

Lenny, congratulations to you.

Heard you're
about to get married.

Why didn't
you tell us earlier?

So let's toast him for
making us Chinese proud!

Let's toast!

To Lenny!

Congratulations.

Still thinking about Jasmine?

Is she still in New York?

Sandy, it's me.

I can't make it tonight.

You guys have fun

and Say hi to Lenny for me.

Talk to you later.

She's been distant for years.

Let's go and find her!

Her place is just around
the corner.

Go left from the restaurant.

No, no.

Damn, I don't remember
clearly.

Anyways it's some
filthy back alley.

I only remember there
was a black cat and rats.

I don't how she can stand
living in that place.

Take care of her.

Don't worry, I'll take her home.

Lenny, don't go!

Oh my god, Lenny?

What are you doing here?

Now, as the city sleeps

enter the late part
of the night.

I bring to the stage the act
you've all been waiting for

our biggest star

the lady from Shanghai.

Oh, Jesus!

Erm, sorry.

I didn't mean to disturb you.

I just saw you sitting here alone and

Can I at least offer
you some champagne?

To make up for my rudeness?

It's warm, um, probably flat.

Look,
I'm not trying to hit on you or anything.

You just look really familiar

and I know how lame that
sounds, but it's true.

Just a small cup?

All right.

But after this,
I really have to go.

Okay.

So let's start over.

To random meetings on
York city rooftops.

To strangers.

Look at this.

This city can be real shithole

but every now
and then she's beautiful.

You know, if you focus hard enough,

every sparkle is a dream
that can come true.

At least that's what
my grandma used to tell me.

But eventually

they fade away.

So maybe it can be
something simple.

Like a moment that we wish
could last forever.

Well, thank you.

For what?

For tonight

and for that.

It's pretty good.

Warm and flat.

Are you leaving?

Yeah, I really have to go.

Hey, wait, what's your name?

Beijin.

You are the host to the present.

And the gateway to the future.

2008 was a year that many investors

around the world
will want to forget.

With plunging home prices
and rising foreclosures.

The housing problem
snowballed into an economic crisis

that we haven't seen
since the great depression.

The city's on fire!

You know, they got rid of
Bill last night, right?

What?

He is a Senior Analyst.

They can't do that?

They can do anything
they want, Charlie.

We're in banking.

If the numbers don't crunch,
they don't crunch.

Well, everybody's head is
on the line, including ours.

The party is over.

What?

You're so dramatic, man.

Is this your artist
fantasy cropping up again?

Huh?

I've told you, being an artist
sounds really good on paper,

but money gives you choices.

You've got your pick of all
these women, even if you

don't want them,
you've got the choice.

Come on, this is New York!

There's always
another deal to make.

All right.

May I?

You may.

Just this once,
don't get any ideas.

Mom, don't worry.

It's all good here.

Our band is selling out
the house every night.

Mom, really don't worry.

New York has been
through it all.

I know your career
is going well, but

it's about time to think about
your own personal issue.

You're not young anymore.

Remember the guy I introduced
to you last time?

He is great, fit,
checks all the boxes.

Mom! Career,
then boyfriend!

You're never gonna
stop, are you?

Okay, okay.

Hello.

Hello?

Hello, anybody?

Hi, hello.

Oh.

Are you Mr. Heron?

Yeah.

Oh, you ordered
Chinese take-out.

And I've been calling
you for a while.

It's $42.50, please.

Just a second.

Here.

Here you go.

Thanks.

And your receipt.

I don't need the receipt,
keep the change.

Oh, thank you.

Hey, uh, hold on.

We've met before.

Yeah, on a roof top,

on the 4th of July.

I offered you the warm
and flat champagne.

Ugh.

Just a small cup.

- Yeah?
- Oh, yes.

- The warm and flat champagne.
- Yeah.

Now I remember.

So, it's your thing right?

Charming strangers
at random locations.

I'm sorry.

- I'm Joe.
- Uh, Jasmine.

Nice to meet you.

It's nice to see you again.

Uh, I really have to go.

Kind of running late, thank you.

Uh, hold on a second.

Wait, this is my card.

It's an old car but
the number is still good.

Just ignore all the stuff,
just the number.

I'm kind of in the middle
of a change.

Actually,
I'm putting together my first art show.

That's great.

Would you be interested
sitting for me?

- Me?
- Yeah.

Uhm.

I keep on replaying that
image of you standing there

alone on the roof top.

You were really far away,

in this beautiful sparking
white dress.

You're tiny in the vast
landscape,

it's almost like
a surrealistic painting.

Thank you.

I don't know,
but I'll think about it.

Okay, great.

Thank you.

Bye.

Bye.

Mrs. Lin, are you absolutely
sure that

you really want to give
your life to this man?

Mr. Lian, do you have the courage to marry

this gorgeous woman?

Do you?

Do you ever get homesick?

This is home.

Come on, you know what I mean.

I'm talking about China.

I mean, your whole
family is there, right?

Yeah.

But I don't know.

It's like when you spent
half of your life

in one country,

and half in another.

It's sort of like

you don't know where you belong.

Sense of belonging.

Maybe we don't have
to belong anywhere.

You are amazing with the
camera, like total natural.

I still can't believe
I'm doing this.

Seems so unreal.

Trust me,
compared to what I used to do,

this is as real it gets.

So, no more banking for you?

Something about making money
out of thin air was not

something I was ever
really proud of.

You know, the money was
good, life was glamorous but

none of it was real.

Well, your new life,

it suits you.

I'd better get going.

Come on, you always have to go.

I mean, I've known you
almost a year now, right?

I mean, I still don't
know what you do,

where you live, who you are,

I know you do a good Annie Hall.

Isn't it better this way?

I grow up, I'm going to be
a famous violinist

in America.

No, all over the world.

You are going to be biggest fan,

following me wherever I go.

In your dreams.

I don't want to
be your puppy following you

around everywhere.

It's not up to you.

We are witnessing
the world's two greatest

economies coming together in
a way they never have before.

China is the fastest growing

and most dynamic economy
on the planet.

China is the future.

To China.

Hey, you made it!

- Good to see you guys.
- To China!

Come on!

Mr. Goldberg, I'd like to
introduce you

to Lenny.

Lenny's the youngest CEO
I've been talking about.

Nice to meet you.

*

You look very beautiful tonight.

Thanks.

I never thought I would see you

in America.

Me neither.

We've been changed.

I actually
came to New York last year.

I wanted to see you

but I was afraid.

Last year, I was in the
exact same place,

doing the same job,
living the same life.

Nothing has changed.

It's as if time has stopped.

Jasmine

I'm sorry.

I always wish time

could wash away.

It's all in the past now.

After so many years,

I'm finally seeing you again.

It's really great.

Hello everyone, ahead of us
is the Statue of Liberty,

one of the most
recognizable icons

in the United States
and the world.

She is the symbol
of freedom, hope

and opportunity.

As you can see,

on her left side she's holding
a stone tablet

with the engraved text
"July 4th, 1776"

to remember
American independence day.

And on her right hand side,

she's holding a flaming torch.

I'm really impressed by you.

You're so knowledgeable
about American history.

That's my job, I have been
doing it for a long time.

After hearing what you have
said, the American Dream makes

more sense to me now.

Before I came to America,

this is the place
I want to come visit the most.

At that time I felt as long
as I work hard,

nothing is impossible.

But I've realised now,
as time passes,

people change, things change

and sometimes dreams
also change.

Some things,

once they are washed away,

they will never come back.

There are some things in
life that never change.

I have a great Idea.

Actually,
I came here last night.

What do you mean?

In my dream.

This is it!

This is the top of the word.

In my dream,

it wasn't with you.
I was with an old man.

I was really confused,
so I asked the old man,

"What is the meaning
of the view?"

The old man replied,
"The view is a reflection

of your emotions."

So I asked,
what's the meaning of those spirits?

The old man said,
"Without the essence

of our souls,
we cease to exist."

Then I asked,
"What is the meaning

of the water?"

The old man said to me,
"It is delicate

yet sparking flow."

Finally I asked,

"What is the meaning of me?"

He replied,
"You're sophisticated

and high class gentleman."

You haven't changed one bit.

I never imagined,
we'll be here together one day.

Hey, Jas, it's Joe.

Uh, hope your day's
panning out good.

Listen, if you have time to
drop by the studio,

please do, okay?

Because I've got something
really, really strong

to show you.

Okay?

I'll talk to you later.

Okay, bye.

"Three treature Beijing
delight", enjoy your meal.

Sure!

Thank you.

"Sorry I can't make it today."

It's really the city of dreams.

Still planning to
be the most famous violinist

in the world?

The most beautiful
violinist in the world.

That was just a childish
dream.

Anyways for now, I need
to make some money first.

Actually,
I'm quite impressed by you.

You spent all these years
abroad on your own.

Have you ever thought
about going back?

Sometimes.

But I always felt if I don't
make something of myself

I can't go back.

Enough about me.

Sandy's been talking about
your life as if

it's a fairy-tale.

It's your turn.

I never told you before,

that year I disappeared
from school

was because
my grandma passed away.

She was the only family I had.

Since then,
I've worked really hard

to make enough money
just to survive.

I polished shoes, delivered
newspapers on the streets,

sold scraps, carried boxes.

I did anything, no matter
how horrible it was.

I had only one goal in mind

is to have my grandma in
heaven be proud of me.

After that it turns out heaven
lent me a helping hand.

A very rich man helped me out.

You could say,
he gave me everything I have now.

He taught me how to make money,

lots of money.

But he is not happy
with his life.

His wife decided to leave him.

She fell in love with
someone who had nothing,

but made her happy.

He was miserable.

He tried so many ways
to get his wife to stay.

She only had one thing
to say to him,

that she just wanted to be free.

He couldn't say anything

but watched her go.

He's an old man now.

Full of regrets

and waiting to die.

I haven't chatted to
anyone like this in a long time.

Me too.

Sorry, my apartment
is right there.

You can stop there.

I'll see you to your door.

It's fine, I can see myself in.

- Jasmine.
- Uh?

Tomorrow night, can I invite
you to join me at a dinner with

some colleagues?

I heard it's a very
famous steak restaurant.

It will only be a few people.

I'd love you to be translator.

I will pick you up at 7, tomorrow evening.

Mhm.

Hello?

Lenny,
how have you been?

You haven't called since
you arrived in New York.

I've been very
worried about you.

I'm sorry.

It's been a very tight schedule.

And my jet lag is
still pretty bad.

How's dad?

That's why I kept
trying to reach you.

His condition has gotten worse.

What did the doctor say?

It's not looking good this time.

They can't say
anything for sure.

It all depends on how
he does next week.

Can you come back earlier?

I'll have to close
the deal tomorrow evening.

I'll try to catch the earliest
flight back after that.

I'm going to sleep.

Lenny.

Good night.

So, I'm waiting for my invite

in the mail any day now.

Your first exhibition.

Yeah, I don't need reminding.

Come on, dude you said a year.

So things not going too well?

I don't know, some days I'm just

fucking frozen.

I mean it's been a year.

I feel like everybody's
just waiting for me to fail

especially my old man,
just to prove he is right.

Look, just trade your
pride for your dream.

Alright?

Go back to your folks,
tell them you're sorry,

take the money.

This is starving artist
routine isn't helping anybody.

I think something
clicked for me.

There is a woman that I met.

There's something different
about her, I mean,

the way she looks,

the way the light catches
her eyes.

It's weird, it's like everytime
I look at her,

I feel

I feel like I've known her
my whole life

but I don't know
anything about her.

Hi.

I was just looking at you.

What do you mean?

I was looking on the photos.

What's up?

Do you?

Do you think

things always come
full circle in life?

Oh, I'm sorry, I know it sounds
crazy but I'm just throwing

random feelings to a stranger.

But if it does come full circle,

does that mean that we always
go back to where we started?

I mean, it's a pretty
scary thought.

Or, maybe it's that perfect
ending that we all wish for.

Interesting.

I think, that we need to

continue this conversation over

dinner and wine,

a date?

Tomorrow night?

Can't do tomorrow night.

A woman who never stops.

Night.

Night.

What is it?

Nothing.

Shall we go?

To the future,
China and America.

Cheers.

Cheers to America and China.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Jasmine.

I have to say, you're the most
beautiful translator

I have seen.

Oh, no.

But thank you, I'm flattered.

Saying, she's beautiful.

Jasmine, how long have you
and Lenny known each other?

Lenny and I

a long time.

They know each other
since years old,

right?

And I know this
guy over 10 years.

Cool huh?

Very cool!

You really keep
your people around.

Some people in our lives
we never let go of.

Yes, he said fate
is very precious.

Guess we have
something in common.

The Jews and Chinese
are brothers!

The Jews and
Chinese are brothers!

Brothers!

Let's toast to our friendship.

Cheers.

Mmm, mmm.

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday
to dear Jasmine ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Thank you, everyone.

Happy birthday, Jasmine.

And Lenny, New York is
your second home now.

And safe travel back to
China tomorrow, Lenny.

Let's toast again
to our friendship.

At the time, let's toast
to Jasmine's birthday.

Cheers.

Cheers!

They wish you a safe trip
back home.

Sorry, there is something
urgent in Beijing that

I have to take care of.

Will you ever comeback?

Of course, very soon.

Of course, another 10 days

just flew by.

This afternoon I have
to see an apartment.

There is a beautiful
view of Central Park.

It's a good size, not too
big or too small,

and very quiet.

It sounds like
a great investment.

Actually I feel that

that place is perfect for you.

I really want to help you,

I want to help you make
your dreams come true.

I'm fine!

Jasmine, I'm not just anyone.

My dreams are gone.

I know there are many things

that money can't buy.

But I know this way I can
at least help you a little.

I owe you.

Do you like it?

It's beautiful.

Thank you.

You really have to go America?

Of coruse, it's my dream.

You've always known that.

Careful!

I can't let you go.

Jasmine, I love you.

Who is it?

Jas?

Come on, come on.

Woah, come on.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay.

Just sit right there.

No, no, no.

Come on, come on.

Jas, Jas, Jas!

Come on, you've had enough.

It's gonna be okay, Jas.

Hey.

I don't know why I'm here.

I don't understand.

Shh.

I just don't want
to be alone tonight.

I don't want to be
all alone by myself.

Okay, I'm here.

You are not alone okay?

I'm here.

I'm with you.

I'm here.

How can he just come
and go whenever he wants.

I want to hate him, but I can't.

Jas?

"Joe, I'm sorry,
have to go Jas."

*

"Sorry, the number you've dialed
is unavailable right now."

"Please try again later."

Jasmine!

Hey!

- How are you darling?
- Good to see you.

Didn't think you could make it.

Me neither.

It's such a great
turn out today.

Oh, Jasmine, this is Gary.

Gary, Jasmine.

Pleasure meeting you.

She is the woman behind
and in front

of all these wonderful
works, and my boss.

Well, it's great to
meet you Jasmine.

Congratulations!

- We're loving this.
- Thank you.

Well, he's very talented.

Have you seen Joe yet?

No.

I saw him doing
some press earlier.

Oh, that's alright.

I'll go to find him.

- Well, see you guys later.
- Bye.

Nice to meet you.

She used to be Joe's muse
for years,

ditched him for a rich guy.

And now

Drama.

Didn't think you'd make it.

You look beautiful.

And you look handsome.

You are not trying to
hit on me, are you?

You know, everyone keeps
asking me who this woman is.

And what do you say?

That she's a mystery.

Joe, oh excuse me.

Emma, Art View Magazine.

- Hi.
- Hi.

I just wanted to say hi.

- Congratulations!
- Thank you.

- I love your art.
- That's so kind of you.

So emotional, so raw.

"Sorry, I'm really trying
my best."

"Please believe me,
are you okay?"

Where to?

You'll see.

Are you kidnapping me?

If you'll let me,
I'll kidnap you.

See that rooftop?

Yes.

That's where I saw you for
the first time,

4 years ago.

You totally captivated me,
it's like

you were from a different era,

a different world.

Actually,
I was also watching you.

An artist trapped in a suit.

Come on.

Here, can I help?

Come on, give me your hand.

Here, give me your hand.

- You're alright?
- No.

- No?
- Of course, not.

Is it bad to abandon
your own party?

Very.

Your work is beautiful.

You see me in a way I have
never imagined myself.

Maybe I can see,
who you really are.

I'm sorry,

I just needed some time.

I felt trapped,
like I couldn't breath anymore.

I know.

After that night,

I didn't think I was ever
going to see you again.

And I understood how you felt.

I know you always do.

Anyways, the future is bright.

You are gonna be a star.

Hey.

I've been trying to
reach you all night.

Last night?

I was busy at the art show.

It was a madness.

Art show?

The first show at our
gallery, remember?

I'm sorry, I forgot.

Did it go well?

It went really well.

The reviews were good.

You know I was so
excited last night.

So many people came
and they all thought

it was a big success.

Also the artist
is very talented.

You know, I know nothing
about art.

Of course,
as long as you're happy.

Are you alright on money?

I miss you.

All I want right
now is to see you.

Lenny, I feel that

Nothing.

It's already very late there.

You should get some rest.

Joe Heron's first major
multi-platform show

opened with a bang.

A glittering array of
celebrities and press to support

this new artistic talent whose
now trademark style

features an unknown Asian woman.

- Who could that be?
- Oh, I don't know.

Oh my god.

There's something brave
about your work that

transgresses boundaries
between art, moving image,

architecture and music.

Heron, a former city banker
who lost his job and gambled

everything on what he
describes as his 'dream',

has found meaning in the
achingly beautiful work that

touches its audience deeply.

Wow, this is amazing.

- Can I take a look?
- Yes.

Thanks.

This is actually quite amazing.

It was so smart to buy
that gallery, Jas.

And you bought at
the right time too.

Thanks.

New artists come and go everyday

so let's wait and see.

So, Joe, the master.

Are you happy?

The reviews are wonderful.

Yeah, I'm happy.

Thank you, for believing in me.

Thank you.

I think the beef's burning.

You are not gonna burn
down my house, are you?

- Don't worry.
- Don't worry?

This is my house,
it isn't your house!

You know, I've got to say,
I never had you down

as a top chef.

Well, there's a lot you
don't know about me.

"Sorry, number you've dialed is

unavailable right now."

I love you.

Is that what you say
to her too?

Lenny, I miss you.

The only reason
I'm in this place is because

I want to feel you next to me,

even just a little bit.

But, where are you?

I can never find you.

Hey, if my own brain
is still working,

isn't it your birthday soon?

- Thanksgiving right?
- Mhmm.

Doing anything to celebrate?

Hmm, let me think.

I'm gonna stuff myself in
turkey so you can't find me.

Oh, darling, from my
understanding,

you're still a baby.

We have to do
something to celebrate.

How's the gorgeous Joe?

He's okay.

Well, we're working
on the new project.

And?

And?

- Nothing.
- Come on!

Sweetie, a word of advice.

Have some fun, fool around
and don't fall in love,

not with an artist.

They are worse than actors.

I love you.

But do you love me?

I love, is too weak a word.

I "luve" you, I "louve" you,

"I loffe" you, I need two "f's".

Can't you be serious?

I am being serious, that's
what Woody Allen sounds like.

No?

The old man who had saved
my life

was my father-in-law.

He just passed away.

Right up to his last breath.

He still couldn't forgive
himself for not making

his wife happy.

I want to see you Jas,

really miss you.

Go!

- Let's drink.
- Drink up.

Yan Yan, Li Yan.

Congratulations to you!

- Congrats!
- Bottoms up.

Congrats, your life has
ended before it began.

All brothers and sisters,
here's to the end!

Woo-hoo!

Drink, drink!

- Cheers, bottoms up.
- Wonderful.

Who's song is this?

It's mine.

It's my song.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

- Hello?
- Hello?

Where are you?

Why have you been
ignoring my calls?

Lenny?

I know you're busy but you

can't even reply to my texts?

Don't you know I've been
so worried about you?

I'm just calling to see

how you are doing.

Jas, I feel like
we're becoming further

and further apart.

I don't even know what
you're doing everyday.

Nothing, I know nothing.

You're drunk.

I don't want to
talk about it now.

Apart from money,
I can't give you anything.

Money?

Do you really think
money i everything?

I don't give a shit about money!

Me neither.

I'm not your mistress.

What do you mean
by "my mistress?"

What do you mean by this?

Do you know,
you're the only person I've ever loved.

I have loved you, all my life!

Is that what you call love?

Forget even a day, we can't even

be together for a few hours.

We're twelve hours apart.

I start my day when
you finish yours.

When I really want
to hear your voice

I can't call you

because I'm afraid your wife
is right there beside you.

Jasmine, you've changed.

Who is he?

Tell me, who he is?

Him?

I'm not the one who's married.

I don't want much.

I just want to share every
moment of my life

with you.

Can you really do this!

You can't do it.

I know it's all my fault.

I just want you to be happy.

Wait for me, I'm taking
the earliest flight

to New York.

You wait for me.

All I need is you.

Lenny,

I've had enough.

Hello?

Hello?

Can you be fucking quite?

What the fuck
are you looking at?

What the fuck do you want?

I'm going to fucking
smash your face.

Lenny, Lenny.

Don't fight.

Go away.

Don't

Do you love me?

Don't be silly, of course I do.

But I know, you love her more.

Go.

Go find her.

Lenny, will we ever be together?

I mean, just you and I.

Under the same roof.

Just us.

You know,
that is my greatest wish.

I wish everything could
start all over again.

Do you believe in fate?

Some people are just
not meant to be,

no matter how hard they try.

Are you implying, you and I?

No.

I was just wondering.

You know,
sometimes you scare me.

The way you talk,
it's like you're gonna

be gone again.

Why did you come to me
that night?

To be honest,
I don't even know.

I just ran and ran.

Until I realized I had
nowhere to go.

And there you were.

Brother, take care.

So, I grew up here

till my grandfather passed away.

And your parents?

Three generations
under this roof.

Three generations?

That's a big happy family.

"Passengers flying to New
York please pay attention."

There was only four of us.

It was always quite.

We only saw each other
at dinners

and even then it was quiet.

It was like sometimes
the only noise

in this house was piano.

You know, when I was a kid
I used to think

I can see the shadows of
my grandparents

walk in these halls.

It is probably
just my imagination but

I really thought I saw it.

Would you play for me?

- Really?
- Yes.

Please.

Okay.

Who is that?

- Oh, that's me.
- That's you?

Oh, you were a chubby kid.

I was a chubby kid.

Oh, my god so cute!

I wasn't that chubby.

I had like a belly.

I can see that.

I was forced to look
into the camera.

She was my fiancé.

Her name is Veronica.

And you say I'm the mystery.

It was a long time ago.

It's strange being here.

All this reminds me of
everything that I've been

running away from.

What happened?

I let her slip away.

I couldn't commit, I was stupid.

But I didn't want to
be like my parents.

Living in this beautiful house,

living like strangers.

You know, the first time
I saw you at the rooftop,

you reminded me of her

the way you held yourself.

So, am I her shadow?

No.

You're my saviour.

I ran away from all this.

I was torn about it

that I shut myself off,
for years.

What I'm trying to say is that,

I know where you've been, Jas.

And I'm in love with you.

It took me like a really long
time to find

the courage to love you

because I don't want to
lose you again.

I can't lose you again.

I don't want to go
anywhere anymore.

I just want to be with you.

"Happy birthday!"

- Morning!
- Morning.

I'm glad you're still here.

I was scared that
you'd run away again.

No, no more running.

Have you been up long?

For a while.

It's really peaceful here.

Yeah, this was my escape.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

I used to swim in there.

- Yeah?
- Mhmm.

Oh, it looks freezing.

It is.

What are you doing?

You are kidding?

Oh, you're not serious!

Joe?

You are crazy!

- I am!
- Joe!

- You are insane!
- Wooh!

Oh, my god are you insane?

Oh!

Come here, come here.

I am crazy!

Are you?

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

- Come here.
- Okay, help me out.

You wanna come in?

- No, I don't think so.
- No, are you sure?

I don't think so,
let go, let go.

- Come on!
- I mean it.

Are you okay?

Oh my god.

- You alright?
- I'm freezing.

No, I'm not alright.

What the hell are you thinking?

Sorry, sorry!

Come on, let's get back.

Are you okay?

Get away from me!

Are you alright?

Leave me alone!

You don't know anything
about me!

I know you love somebody else!

Look I'm sorry
about what I said.

Me too.

Let's start fresh.

I'll see you tonight?

That's the plan.

Happy birthday.

I wanted to surprise you.

Would you like a drink?

Water, coke,

whiskey, wine

and Mao Tai?

I didn't realize
you like Mao Tai.

In case one day,

you might come back.

Happy birthday.

Thanks.

Lenny?

How was the exhibition?

Great.

Lenny,

there's something
I want to tell you.

I want to meet him.

- Hi!
- She is here, birthday girl!

Happy birthday!

Thank you for coming.

Thank you for coming,
birthday girl.

- Oh, darling thank you.
- Happy birthday, darling.

Thank you.

Oh, this is Lenny,
my friend from China,

and he is here
on a business trip.

Lenny, I'm Oliver, pleasure
to meet you,

welcome to New York.

Hello,
I am Helen, nice to meet you.

Please, join us.

Oh Jasmine, that dress
looks gorgeous on you.

I was hoping this color
will bring me luck today.

Can I get you guys some drinks?

Champagne, please.

Big bottle.

Did you guys do anything
for today?

Actually, nothing special.

Oh, well,
that's about to change.

- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.

- Happy birthday, Jas.
- Aww.

Hope you like it.

We worked really hard.

We went on a whole shopping
trip together.

The whole day.

Oh, we're so rude.

Do you like rose, Lenny?

- It's amazing.
- It's amazing.

Thank you.

Sorry, I'm late.

Hi, I'm Joe.

Hi Joe, Helen.

- It's nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- I'm Oliver.
- Hi, nice to meet you.

Pleasure to meet you.

Hey man, I'm Joe.

Nice to meet you.

This is Lenny, my friend
from China,

and he just happens
to be in town.

How are you?

Hello.

Wow.

That's it.

It's all the Chinese
that know of.

I swear she's gonna
give up on me.

Well, before me.

Would you like me
to open it for you, Ma'am?

Yes, please.

- Nice!
- Celebration!

So, I was late.

Yes?

Because I had to pick
it up at the printers.

Can I save it for later?

You sure you don't
wanna see it now?

I think you're gonna love it.

You're beautiful in it.

- Oh.
- You're gonna love it.

You guys want to see it?

- Yeah!
- Absolutely!

Joe.

You grab that side, okay.

Open it.

Stunning!

- It's incredible, Joe.
- It's all her.

Every look that she gives me
is full of beauty and strength.

I swear she's the strongest person I know.

That's Jasmine for you.

It's lovely.

How about a toast
to the birthday girl?

Cheers!

- Cheers, to the birthday girl!
- Cheers!

Happy birthday, Jasmine.

Happy birthday.

Joe, Jasmine was just
telling us about

the new show you are working on?

Yeah, it's a series of four
shows

called China Girl.

They're just talking
about Joe's new show.

Do you love him?

So, Lenny,

how long have you known
Jasmine for?

Whole life.

Wow, that's wonderful.

You can't smoke in here.

Is he okay?

Yeah, I think so,
probably just jet lag.

Oh yeah, that flight
is crazy.

I can't believe he
is still standing.

He must care a lot about
you to be here now.

I think I'm gonna go check
up on him,

all right?

Of course.

Don't worry, we'll
take care of Joe.

I'm sorry.

Since my grandma died,
I've promised myself

I won't let my family go again.

I meant you.

I watched you going to school
and back home in secret.

I wished you happy
birthday from afar.

Watched you laugh and cry.

Just now, I suddenly
realized everything,

our love is just an illusion,

or a dream that will
never come true!

It's not a dream.

We've been through so much.

Do you know how hard I've tried?

I know you have too.

I saw you belong to
that world there.

Is that the life
you've been dreaming of?

I don't know what
I want anymore.

I no longer know what kind
of life I really want.

I drift between two worlds,
I don't know where I belong.

I want a home.

Didn't you say we're going
to have a home together?

Where are you?

Tell me where are you?

I just know, I've tried
my best to love you.

But I'm really unhappy.

You make me happy.

You always make me happy.

Lenny.

We can't keep destroying
ourselves anymore.

We can't carry on like
this anymore.

Sorry.

So he is the memory?

The dream that you couldn't
let go of all these years.

So, what we have is,

it's what?

It's a lie?

A game?

That's not true.

It's not?

Don't do this?

You know I want to be with you.

Do you?

Do you?

Don't.

- Do you want to be with me?
- Yes.

I love you.

Is that what you want to hear?

I only want to hear it
if it's the truth.

But I don't think you know how
to love someone

because you've never
lost someone you loved.

Don't do that to me!

- Don't do what?
- Don't!

When you've finally
found the person you've been

looking for the
whole of your life.

You've realized you
still love her deeply.

This kind of love

is like having a family,
a best friend

and a lover all in one.

The beautiful thing is,

it's an eternal love.

The scariest thing is,

it's beyond any control.
