Handover year 1997 sees much drama for Joy (Gigi Leung), the chief financial officer of a big company. She struggles to keep her family life together, as her husband is forced to relocate to Singapore due to his British affiliation and her son is stricken with disease. Joy's best friend and assistant (played by Fiona Sit) is a young girl trying to figure out her dodgy boyfriend. Still, she tries to help but Joy plunges into deeper despair due to her family problems. One day, the torment becomes unbearable and Joy breaks down. Things look bleak for the both of them until a friend makes good on an old promise and brings them all within sight of happiness again.
