What it’s about. The matter of growing, which we always understand afterward, is driving us far away enough to not having a good farewell. The story begins with a day that Hong Kong experiences a magnitude 4.5 earthquake. It brings almost no impact to the city but a beautiful yet untouchable year to a form-one boy name Kwok Pak Chi. Due to the unadaptable school life and his introspective character, he starts to imagine animals escaped from the earthquake as his friends. However, the more he immerses in his fantasy, the more he is pushed by the reality. With the pressure from his unsatisfying homework, schoolmates’ opinions and caring from others, how should Pak Chi confront himself and his imaginary friends?

Who’s in it. At Some Point In Time stars Anson Woo as Kwok Pak Chi, Joey Leung Cho-Yiu as Lam Siu Tung, Johnny Hui as Kwok's Father and Halina Tam Siu-Wan as Kwok's Mother, among others.
