Award-winning Hong Kong drama from veteran director Ann Hui, reuniting local superstar Andy Lau with his real-life godmother Deannie Yip (Best Actress at Venice Film Festival). "Chung Chun To (Deanie Yip) has served the Leung family as a live-in maid for over 60 years, through four generations. With most of the family moved to the United States, the only one who needs her these days is film producer Roger Leung (Andy Lau), who frequently uses the family apartment in Hong Kong. But then she has a stroke. She becomes an invalid and decides to retire into an old-pensioners home. This drastically changes her relationship with Roger, who feels obliged to look after her instead of the other way round." (Twitch Film)
