Pillow

How far would you go for a good night's sleep?
Stricken by the disappearance of her boyfriend, Yee starts to develop insomnia. Countless sleeping pills couldn't treat the disorder, until one day when she comes across a small rundown bedding shop under an alley. "Finding a comfortable pillow is as difficult as finding Mr. Right." Yee is especially attracted by the exotic scent of a bolster and decides to buy it. It works like a charm, as if her boyfriend caresses her to sleep every night. But what she doesn’t know is the secret behind the bolster and the nightmare she is getting herself into...
Hide And Seek
directed by Lawrence Lau Kwok Cheong
A forsaken elementary school is scheduled to be torn down. Some alumni decide to pay a visit to the place they once called home, but some decide to call it home and reside there for good.
8 bold former classmates return to their schoolyard for old times' sake. Just when they think the gatekeeper is the only being in the abandoned site, they don't realise there are actually more "inhabitants" than they ever imagine. While they are juggling around and playing their own version of hide-and-seek, more and more "players" join in without their knowing. As the night falls, they will soon come face-to-face with the inhabitants that lurk behind and prevent them from leaving the site.

Wherever there is god, there is evil. Contrary to our usual perception, evil often presents itself in the most peculiar, unexpected disguise.
Lam is a middle-aged, hobbit-sized man in a Tang outfit and black umbrella. Virtuous on the outlook and chivalrous on the inside, he feels like an outcast in this filthy city where the traditional value is plunged by the modern culture. When his ingenuousness is being exploited to the tolerance peak, his inner beast breaks loose and wrecks havoc on whoever took advantage of him.
