In this film, Simon Yam won the best actor award in the recent Hong Kong Film awards for his role as a dull cobbler, Sandra Ng a sharp-tongued-but-soft-hearted housewife, and Ann Hui, one of the best film directors in Hong Kong, cameo as a kindergarten teacher. Between tears and smile, their stories touch your heart. (official distributor synopsis)
