I was pleasantly surprised by the opening scene which features a telephone conversation between a world weary looking Sammi Cheng and a two-timing customer. It wasn’t what was said that confounded me; it was the fact that the entire conversation was in Cantonese that put a smile on my face. Finally, a Hong Kong movie that was left unmolested by the MDA (the Media Development Authority) and the Cantonese language sounded like music to my ears. Frankly, my government’s insistence on dubbing all films and programmes that come from Hong Kong to mandarin has outlived its objectives. It’s high time to leave these films untouched. Hong Kong writer-director Heiward Mak’s last mainstream hit was Love in a Puff (2010), a quirky look at modern romance, which she co-wrote. With Fagara, she has ascended a new level. With a drama about three sisters coming together after the sudden death of their father from three different mothers, it wouldn’t be out of place for it to be emotionally coercive, but Mak demonstrates sublime restraint and astute instincts to steer the narrative in a different direction. There is a focus on character detail, with the doling out of exposition and backstory happening throughout the course of the movie in luminous flashbacks. There are no weak characters here and the casting is exquisite. Sammi Cheng, without a smidgen of glamour, does the heavy lifting, and she is a revelation. Her weariness is palpable and her vulnerability permeates her entire being. Megan Lai and Li Xiaofeng fill their scenes with humility and humanism too. Using these well-drawn characters in their own spheres, Mak is making a point with the modern women who owe no one for the choices they make in life. The writing is peppered with many life-affirming gems and most of the time they are delivered by Richie Jen and Andy Lau cameos. There is also much humour rendered by a cockroach and the kitchen.
