20 30 40 (Twenty Thirty Forty)
Sylvia Chang wrote, directed and starred in this story of three women at different stages of their lives. She is the forty-something of the triumvirate who never meet in the film, though their paths subtly cross. The storytelling is refreshingly honest, and the actresses, who all helped pen their own stories, bring a convincing charm and reality to their roles. Chang deserved her Best Actress nomination at Hong Kong's 24th Film Awards.
