Line
接線
Synopsis
To a wheelchair-bound elderly woman abandoned to the care of a foreign domestic maid, a phone line is a lifeline that connects her to a cross-section of females from a jumble of bygone eras. As she showers persistent but inconsequent questions on her unwitting receivers, she drifts further from reality, her lucid moments increasingly rare. Struck by the doctor’s advice, her son takes the first step towards helping her separate fact from fantasy, and by relating the nostalgic past to the present, unlocks old memories that are waiting to be shared.
