There are three stories of women and men: in \"A Time for Love\" set in 1966, a soldier searches for a young woman he met one afternoon playing pool; \"A Time for Freedom,\" set in a bordello in 1911, revolves around a singer's longing to escape her surroundings; in \"A Time for Youth\" set in 2005 Taipei, a triangle in which a singer has an affair with a photographer while her partner suffers is dramatized.

Over the years between the tales, as sexual intimacy becomes more likely and words more free, communication recedes.
