Three Extremes: Dumplings
Sinopses(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.

An interesting perverted premise, otherwise the film was meh.

The film is incredible in how it showcases truly repulsive things. It presents itself as a good A-list film, but what you see here... Honestly, there isn't much to it; the camera blurs the image or shoots from angles where not everything is clear. The editing is well-chosen, but it's the sounds that complete the whole thing... And of course, you'll understand what's actually happening. It’s amazing how trash can be visually stunning, sometimes even kitschy. For me, a very surprising film, and although I really struggled not to gag during one scene, overall, this experience was definitely worth it.
