The Hole

A search for intimacy in a world of disaster.

70%(100)IMDbDramaRomanceScience Fiction

In the final days of the year 1999, almost everyone in Taiwan has died from a strange plague that ravished the island. As rain pours down relentlessly, a single man is stuck with an unfinished plumbing job and a hole in his floor. This results in a very odd relationship with the woman who lives below him.
