(Ann Hui / 2011 / Hong Kong / 118 minutes / cert tba / subtitled)

Ann Hui has received glowing praise on the festival circuit for this beautiful, intimate film. Deannie Yip plays a maid who has worked for the same family for three generations and now looks after one of the grown up sons (Andy Lau). When she falls ill she decides to move into a long term care facility but has difficulty being cared for after so many years of caring for others. Her relationship with the man she has looked after since has was a baby is reversed, and he begins to realise all she has done for him.
