Comment
An evening in a Beijing bar - a bunch of artists, painters and dancers are playing a game similar to the European "stone-scissors-paper". But the Chinese version is more complex. Depending on the result (equal, won or lost) the players accompany their gestures with symbolic kisses or slaps to their opponents faces with dazzling speed. The turmoil is increasing until it explodes in roaring ecstatic laughter to again loose intensity and sag. Then a new couple restarts the game.
