What Still Human Is About

Oliver Siu Kuen Chan's 2018 Hong Kong film follows the relationship between Cheong-wing, confined to a wheelchair after an accident, and Evelyn, the Filipina migrant worker who comes to care for him. Both are at a point in life they did not want; Evelyn, who set out to study nursing, begins to dream of photography. The film treats care work from a place that neither exalts nor pities it; the relationship runs both ways and is at times difficult. The working conditions of the hundreds of thousands of domestic migrant workers in Hong Kong are felt constantly in the background. Anthony Wong's performance and Crisel Consunji's first film role are well matched. It took awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards including best actor, best new performer and best new director. Who it's for: viewers interested in Hong Kong independent cinema and films about migrant labour. Who it's not for: anyone wanting a fast narrative, or who will find an emotionally resolved ending too soft.
