| Summary: | Set in Singapore, where everything around us is constantly changing, an old Peranakan couple’s love
remains the same. Married for 45 years, they have been through some rough times together, but now May
finds herself alone in this struggle with Alzheimer’s disease as she watches the life, memories and traditions
she shared with Peter slip away. In an attempt to hold on to what they have lost, she decides that she will be
his sole caregiver and, like her husband the shoemaker, she tries to fix the problems. However, her
frustrations increase and her confidence shatter when she loses him at work. Finally, she decides it’s time to
make a choice. |
