Synopsis
One night Chih-hui kills his wife, and only then discovers how happy life can be: no more nagging, and the peace he has long dreamed of turns out to be simple and wonderful. He tells friends and relatives that his wife has gone on holiday far away, and life is easy and pleasant, until he receives a holiday postcard from her. What is going on? Didn't he kill her? Or has she become a vengeful ghost coming for his life? Fear and anger slowly fade from Chih-hui's heart, and he remembers the tenderness and happiness they once shared. Strangely, he begins to look forward to the sight of his wife coming home pulling her suitcase...
