Opening in the year 2046, Tak (Takuya Kimura) persuades wjw1967 (Faye Wong) to travel back in time with him. The film then shifts to the year 1966 in which Chow Mo-Wan (Tony Leung Chiu-wai), a struggling author, asks the woman he loves, Su Li-Zhen (Gong Li) to sail with him from Singapore to Hong Kong on Christmas Eve.

She declines, and over the next three years, we return to Chow Mo-Wan on December 24 as he finds himself with another woman each year - lighthearted Lulu (Carina Lau) in 1967, eccentric hotel heiress Wang Jing Wen (Faye Wong) in 1968, and high-class prostitute Bai Ling (Zhang Zi Yi) in 1969. In time, Chow Mo-Wan and Wang Jing Wen become re-acquainted, and a love affair blooms, but the fates are not on their side...

Hong Kong-based filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai ('CHUNG KING EXPRESS') moves back and forth in time as he re-examines and amplifies the themes from his film 'In the Mood For Love' in this off-beat romantic drama.
