Movie Details

30 is said to be a transitional age for women. Faced with work stress from an unexpected promotion, aging parents, a stagnant relationship and her impending birthday, 29-year-old Christy is gripped by insecurity about her present and future. Meanwhile, the carefree and optimistic Joyce makes a different choice at the age of 29, by packing her bags and pursuing her childhood dream. The two strangers who share the same birthdate form a connection when Christy moves into Joyce`s apartment and reads her diaries. Christy learns that though Joyce is not as accomplished, her life is fully lived.

The Good, the Bad and the Almost 30-year-old Ladies:

• The movie is relatable and so close to life especially for those in their late 20s and those who needed help to tide over their quarter-life crisis.

• Usually for a movie that's based on a play, the story will still feel like a play and you would know that the movie is based on a play, but for "29+1", it doesn't feel like that, and that is an amazing feat to achieve.

• The movie is really sentimental and the gorgeous visuals suit the mood of the story.

• The movie appropriately showcases the acting skills of Chrissy Chau and Joyce Cheng. They're both very convincing and managed to bring emotional depth to their characters.

Trivia:

• The movie is based on a one-woman play of the same name in 2005.
