From the acclaimed Hong Kong director Ann Hui, A Simple Life is based on producer Roger Lee’s relationship with the family maid who raised him as a child. Sixty years after working for the Liang household, Ah Tao is left serving the young master, Roger, as other family members pass away or migrate to other countries. Though Ah Tao and Roger live amicably and interdependently for a decade, their daily interaction is minimal. When Ah Tao suffers from a stroke and requests to be moved to a retirement home, Roger begins to realize the importance of Ah Tao to him.
This film leads us on a journey as the young master establishes a touching kinship with Ah Tao more than six decades after knowing one another.
