This is Hong Kong 2090. Population a few thousand, perhaps less; median age about sixty. After forty years of universal sterility, the human race is vanishing while the rest of the planet makes a healthy comeback.

Song Sung, 42, the youngest person alive, adjusts to life as a post-modern savage with girlfriend Rhea and a few fellow survivors, rediscovering instincts that had long been distorted by civilization. Their relationships with nature, each other, and themselves have fundamentally changes. The dilemma, pain and pleasure of love, friendship, compassion, aging and loneliness have been heightened by the dictates of uncompromising circumstances. The unknowbale - God, death, even reality - have assumed new and shifting dimensions in man's dying worlds.

Some can't help wondering how Homo Sapiens got into this dire situation. Others hang on tenaciously to one thing that has not changed: hope.
