홍콩에서 오랜만에 등장한, 놀라운 재능의 여성감독의 데뷔작.
부유한 가정주부 안나와 중국본토에서 온 그녀의 운전기사 휘.
중국본토와 홍콩의 복잡하고도 항시 변하는 관계를 감안하며 홍콩의 격변하는 경제적 압박을 넘겨 보고자 노력하는 동안, 둘 사이엔 예상치 못한, 드문 우정이 싹튼다.
Flora Lau's debut feature is a beautifully formed, subtle film that focuses on the lives of two people with very different prospects a wealthy Hong Kong woman and her mainland Chinese chauffeur both trying to cope with life's unexpected dramas.
Anna (Carina Lau) struggles to maintain appearances with her status-conscious friends after her husband mysteriously vanishes.
Fai's (Chen Kun) wife is heavily pregnant with their second child, has no health care entitlements in Hong Kong and cannot give birth in their homeland without incurring penalties for breaching the one-child policy. While their daily routines intersect, their fates only momentarily converge and Lau elegantly critiques the social contradictions at play by paralleling their predicaments rather than constructing drama between the two protagonists.
