Storyline
After discovering his wife's infidelities, Gerry leaves London to look after his deceased brother's business and family in Singapore. Discovering a foreign world of opportunity that had not existed before gives Gerry a chance at starting over by slipping into his brother's life - both emotionally and physically. However, leaving his wife and child behind in the UK is not so easy as Gerry must choose between becoming his brother's alter ego 'Mister John' or returning to London to face his failing relationship.

This film is about grief, and being lost. It's not a badly made film, the subject matter while uneasy is something that other countries have to deal with a lot more than ours. Just because we are unfamiliar with it, or don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It is well shot, has good acting and the music is spot on. It's the kind of film that may hold a mirror up to how one deals with relationships, and that may make people uncomfortable. As always, watch it and make your own mind up.
