description
The award winning A Simple Life is a smooth, fluid story that shows the heart warming relationship between an old maid and her young master.
The old servant Tao has been like the air in Roger's life, the two got along smoothly without much communication. However, their journey to true understanding starts when Roger takes Tao to the elderly home. Instead of being looked after, he becomes the son that Tao never has.
The simple plot proves to showcase the chemistry between Deanie Ip and Andy Lau. It also captures Ann Hui's special style of social realism at its best.
Based on real people and events, CHUNG Chun-Tao has worked as an amah-a servant- for the Leung family. Now, after 60 years of service, she is looking after Roger, who works in the film industry and is the only member of the family still resident in Hong Kong . One day, Roger comes home from work to find that Tao has suffered from a stroke. He rushes her to hospital, where she announces that she wants to quit her job and move into a nursing home. Roger researches the possibilities and finds her a room in an establishment run by an old friend. Tao moves in and begins acquainting herself with a new family the brisk but fundamentally kind supervisor Ms Choi and a motley crew of elderly residents, including the dapper Uncle Kin, the jealous Auntie-Kam, the erudite Headmaster and the good-hearted dialysis patient Mui Gu. Giving ever more time and attention to Taos needs and pleasures, Roger comes to realize how much she means to him. But Taos health begins to deteriorate rapidly .
