A story of love, gambling, broken heart, and broken dreams. “A City Called Macau” is shiny, lavish. It lures, hoping you would dive into its spaces and sounds. It promises a roller-coaster ride of fate with a young casino broker and single mother Xiao-ou (Bai Baihe). Your breath should depend on her as you watch her rise and fall. Your heart should be skipping a beat with the mistakes of the high roller property developer Kevin Duan (Wu Gang) and the sculptor Shi Qilan (Huang Jue) who render her less cautious. Who allow her to think she can trust them as friends. Yet, the city that in 2012 outdid Las Vegas doesn’t let the professional trespasses unpunished.
