Covertext:
Seit Teenagertagen hat Chung Chun-Tao (Deannie Yip), genannt Ah Tao, als Kindermädchen und dann als Hausdame für die Leungs gearbeitet. Viele Familienmitglieder sind schon lange tot, andere emigriert. Nun, nach inzwischen 60-jährigem Dienst, sieht sie für Roger (Andy Lau), der in Hongkongs Filmindustrie arbeitet, nach dem Rechten.
Als der eines Tages nach Hause kommt, hat Ah Tao einen Schlaganfall erlitten. Er bringt sie ins Krankenhaus, wo die alte Dame ihm eröffnet, dass sie ihren Dienst quittieren und in ein Altersheim ziehen möchte. Eine für sie neue Welt.
Descrizione di Tucker Film:
Basato su eventi e persone realmente esistiti, il film parla di Chung Chun-Tao che lavorò come amah (donna di servizio) per la famiglia Leung. Ora, dopo sessant’anni di servizio, si prende cura di Roger, che lavora nell’industria del cinema ed è l’unico membro della famiglia ancora residente ad Hong Kong. Un giorno Roger torna a casa e scopre che Tao è stata colpita da un malore. La porta subito all’ospedale dove lei annuncia di voler lasciare il lavoro per trasferirsi in una casa di cura. Roger vaglia le varie possibilità e le trova una stanza in uno stabilimento gestito da un suo vecchio amico. Tao si trasferisce e comincia a familiarizzare con la sua nuova “famiglia”: la signora Choi, vivace ma gentile direttrice, e l’eterogeneo gruppo di anziani residenti, che include l’elegante Zio Kin, la gelosa Zia Kam, l’erudito “Headmaster” e il paziente in dialisi di buon cuore Mui Gu. Dedicando sempre più tempo e attenzioni ai bisogni e ai desideri di Tao, Roger realizza quanto lei significhi per lui. La mamma di Roger gli fa visita dalla California e suggerisce di riscattare un appartamento che appartiene alla famiglia per dare a Tao una casa sua. Ma la salute di Tao comincia a deteriorarsi rapidamente…
