A romance between two opposites, Eating Air follows the lives of two teenagers during the hottest month in the history of Singapore. For Boy, breaking into bridal shops under the moonlight is as wildly exciting as Girl on her first motorcycle spin through the binding fluorescent tunnels of the CTE. About the joys and pangs of teenage love, Eating Air seeks the delirious madness that makes 18-year-olds invincible to low fuels, fists and oil-puddles on the road.
Eating Air is a 1999 Singaporean action romantic drama film directed by Kelvin Tong and Jasmine Ng, starring Benjamin Heng and Alvina Toh as two disaffected teenagers who are in love and about their days of being wild and crazy. Billed as "a motorcycle kung-fu love story", the directorial feature debut of Tong and Ng has since been considered a cult classic among the local film community.
