A Modern Woman Called Ang Tau Mui 一個名叫紅豆妹的摩登師奶 (2018)

Synopsis

People say life is like a dream,
She says a dream is like life,
There is joy and celebration,
There is sorrow and grief,
When awaken from a dream, she has come to the end of life….

Ang Tau Mui, a toilet cleaner, has been idolizing Lin Dai since young. As a working-class woman, she has always yearned to shine on stage just as Lin Dai. Ang Tau Mui has been striving in the tangible reality; from one place to the other, running and searching, speaking and confiding with people and herself. While traversing between reality and dream, she returns to her childhood house, rests in a kopitiam, catches a movie in a cinema, rides on the mini bus, and finally, she stops at an old temple. Trailing after Lin Dai’s songs, her captivating yet poignant story has come to an end….

人說人生如夢,她說夢如人生,
短短的一剎,她快樂,她興奮,
匆匆的一場,她悲哀,她苦悶。
當她從夢中醒覺,却已走完了一生……

一個經典時代女子既有趣又淒美的奇幻人生,一位名叫紅豆妹的摩登師奶……

視著名影后林黛為知心好友的紅豆妹,自少女時代便不斷尋找人生的意義,離家與情人私奔,迷失在紅男綠女的聲色世界之中,徘徊在情感與物慾之間。她不停出走,但從來不帶身份證。成為廁所女工後,又想在齷齪中找尋純潔。從一個地方走到另一個地方,回到她成長的房子,來到一間暫歇的Kopitiam,走進電影院,坐上迷你巴士,最後,停在一座寺廟裏……一場又一場現實與夢境交錯的時空,親愛的林黛、平凡的父母、不堪的情人、嚴肅的警衛、好奇包租婆和隱世尼姑,紅豆妹不斷與人與自己對話,上演一個摩登師奶的奇幻自述。
