Dream Home Dream Home |
Wai dor lei ah yut ho Dir: Ho-Cheung PangTrailerPhotoSynopsisDirectorWhen she was a child, Cheng Lai-sheung (Josie
Ho) could see Hong Kong’s famed Victoria Harbour
from her apartment. But as time passed, the old
buildings in front of her home were demolished to
make way for a huge residential project that now
blocks her view. Increasingly disappointed and upset,
she vowed to one day save up enough money
for her family to move into a new apartment with a
magnificent sea view.
In order to achieve her dream, Cheng has to work
hard at two full-time jobs. She even goes as far as
stealing customer data to sell to other companies.
However, no matter how much she toils, she cannot
earn enough to keep up with the ever-increasing
values of Hong Kong’s real estate. With her father
terminally ill and medical expenses rising, she
decides to make a fateful choice for her family: to
let her father die and cash in his insurance.
But even the insurance money proves to not be
enough, since property prices keep leaping higher.
Her dream home now seems forever out of reach...
until suddenly, it dawns on her: in order to get what
she wants, she must take matters into her own
hands...even if it means getting her hands seriously
bloody.
