Filmmaker Ray Yeung (Twilight’s Kiss, MGFF21) delivers a powerfully restrained examination of grief in the face of inequality, in this Berlinale Teddy award winner.
Hong Kong couple Pat and Angie have been devoted to each other for over 30 years. Despite being unable to marry, they’ve built a comfortable home and life together with the full support of Pat’s extended family. However, when Pat dies without leaving a will, a devastated Angie is faced with the harsh realities of acceptance as money and the law come into play. With a stirring central performance from Patra Au Ga Man, Yeung has masterfully crafted a drama that is both transfixing and controlled.
