Synopsis

Xingxi (whose name translates to Brooke in English) is traveling solo in Alor Setar, a town in Northern Malaysia. On 30 June, she discovers a puncture on her bicycle tire, which sets her off on an adventure. Then 30 June begins again: Same puncture, different adventure. Then it begins again. Over the course of her three alternate experiences in the laid-back, picturesque town, Brooke makes new friends and ruminates on life, love and belonging.

With Three Adventures of Brooke, Yuan Qing presents the possibilities afforded by just going with the flow. Though Brooke’s meandering is, on one level, mundane, Yuan Qing’s script conjures enough whimsy and emotion to fill the film with wonder and endear it to fans of Éric Rohmer.
