在这部与你同在的夏天爱情片中,80年代的中国是「面向现代化、面向世界、面向未来」的年代，也是乡村人迟早都会离乡别井，离开亲人友人情人，到城市追梦的年代。在那阳光灿烂的日子里，夏蝉鸣，午後洒著过云雨，苏伟的贺尔蒙在发作，闲来捣蛋，上堂偷睡，下课便追女仔，目标就是那个歌咏团的李明馨。一日，苏伟在邮局分信，发现一封大学取录李明馨的信伴，於是将它扣起，以免心仪女神出城远去留学。可是，这一自私所为，让他注成一次无可挽回的错和遗憾。去年凭《冬至》出展HKAFF的谢东，今回继续他的四季情，上次冷得入骨的婚外情，今次已变成盛夏的青葱岁月。谢东的第二部作品，从侯孝贤、塔可夫斯基、安德烈达仙尼的电影里汲取养份，让一段初恋一则乡村轶事，在流丽优雅的摄影下，慢慢渗透出情事、城乡迁徙的无奈。
In the backdrop of the 80's China, villagers in the remote countryside will inevitably move to the big cities to continue their dreams. This is the era China has to "march forward to modernization, the world and the future". During those days, school boy Zu Wei lives his village life happily and contentedly until his dream girl, Ming Xin, finally shows up. One day, when he is doing part time job in post office, he notices a letter of acceptance to university for Ming Xin. He steals it in order not letting his girl go away, which eventually leads to an irreversible regret for the rest of his life. A coming-of-age story with subtlety and melodic flow of images.
看起來有點像韓國片。对初恋的怀念。與你同在的夏天(one summer with you)。Talk about与你同在的夏天。经过夏天来到冬至，Be together~。别拿烂片来充当文艺片。我的她也是那样的。只为这个坐在单车坐上笑的女孩.。
