Director Fen-Fen Cheng Cast Joseph Chang, Haden Kuo Genre Mystery/Romance Synopsis Days seem to move on slowly for Ching, a young girl who repairs watches in her alcoholic father’s antique watch shop. She lives by a train station and watches trains bringing travelers in and out of the small town every day. Yet, she has never gone on a train until she meets a boy who claims to be her secret admirer since high school. The boy is shy and he could only show his affection for her by coming to her watch shop everyday at 3pm with the same broken watch and giving her money bills made into the shape of tiny balloons in return. Fascinated by this secret and mysterious admirer who puts her in the centre of his attention, Ching falls in love. One day, after the boy stops showing up at her door, she worriedly rings the boy’s phone number on her high school phone list and is told that the boy she knew by the name has been long dead. The shock takes her by surprise and it leaves her wondering whom she was actually with during all those days and whether what happened between her and the boy ever really happened.
