Kite

Synopsis

A man stands at the edge of a cliff staring at the void beneath. With nothing left to live for and only one thing left to lose he has a chance to meet with a little stranger who gives him hope and a reason to live. Kite tells the story of a friendship between a middle-aged foreigner and a little Chinese girl; it's also a film about second chances. Life is a beautiful thing, and you should never give up but keep your hopes and dreams alive even in your darkest hours. They are both lonely alone, but destiny throws them together on a remote island of all places. They both learn that life is worth living even though we feel there is no way out.
