I was surprised by this film. It's a little overdone and cheesy but the great acting by Anthony Chau-Sang Wong helps carry the film along. Crises Consunji does well as a newcomer. She has a difficult role to represent the hopes and dreams of domestic helpers in Hong Kong. I've been disappointed by HK film for the last decade or so but there's some signs of a new beginning in the emotional intimate film. It doesn't have a big budget, and it looks to be shot on video but the colour grading and scenes are very lively and interesting. The sets help carry the viewer deep into Hong Kong subculture. It's important that these smaller films get made to show to international audiences. Things are looking up for HK film industry
