A Simple Life

Tao (Deanie Ip) had been working for the Lee family since she was 13. Now, that most of the family has moved away, she has only Roger (Hong Kong superstar Andy Lau), a film producer traveling back and forth around the globe but still based in Hong Kong, to take care of. That means cooking, cleaning, washing and worrying about him 24 hours a day, whether he is at home or discussing film projects in Beijing.

When she has a medical issue which leaves her partly paralysed, she insists on being put into a nursing home at her own expense, instead of being a burden on Roger's busy life. He, though, finds a place for her in an institution run by an old friend and leaves her into the capable hands of Ms. Choi (Qin Hailu), but never fails to visit her every time he comes home from his travels.
