Due West Our Sex Journey 2012 1080p Bluray -
"Due West: Our Sex Journey" stands as a notable example of Hong Kong's "Category III" film tradition from the 2010s. For those studying this era of regional cinema or seeking a high-quality viewing experience, the 1080p Blu-ray edition provides the technical standards necessary to view the film as originally intended by the production team.
Released during a resurgence of Hong Kong Category III cinema in the early 2010s, Due West: Our Sex Journey stands alongside films like 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy as a high-production-value exploration of adult themes.

If your relationship has ended, you did not get lost. You went Due West as far as the two of you could walk. The love story is not invalid because it ended; the love story is complete because it had a sunset.
The film chronicles Frankie’s puberty and his early, clumsy attempts at understanding sex, often mentored by his friend Jing (Gregory Wong) and fueled by pornography.
In a Hollywood Western, the shootout is loud, bloody, and decisive. In real life, the High Noon of a relationship is often quiet. It happens in a parked car after a party.
