來自東北工業小城的李月穎（姚芊羽 飾），為了更好的未來，到處尋找工作 機會，遇上一名男子托她帶貨到深圳。 從農村跑到深圳打工的Jenny（謝珍妮 飾），嫁到香港生了小孩，日子卻不如 意，已在辦理離婚。李月穎是戲劇角 色，Jenny是真實人物，導演唐曉白就讓 她們在一半虛構一半紀實的電影中擦身 而過。賈樟柯聯合監製，片名是反諷， 虛實交錯的敘事，猶如一體兩面，也可 能是某種女性命運的後果前因。

唐曉白於北京成長，2001年移居香港。 第二部作品《完美生活》於釜山電影節 亞洲電影之窗單元作世界首映，並入選 威尼斯影展地平線單元，獲溫哥華電影 節龍虎獎、香港國際電影節亞洲數碼錄 像競賽金獎。2012年再執導《愛的替身》， 再次入選釜山國際電影節亞洲電影之窗單 元。

映前映後 Before and After Li Yueying (Yao Qianyu), a young woman from an industrial town in north-eastern China, dreams of a better future by constantly searching for more promising work opportunities. She encounters a man who asks her to help him carry some goods to Shenzhen. Meanwhile Jenny (Jenny Tse), who was born in a rural area in China but went to Shenzhen to work, is now married to a Hong Konger. Her life, however, is less than perfect and she is in the middle of divorcing her husband. Li Yueying is a fictional character, while Jenny is a real person. Director Emily Tang fashions a partly fictional and partly real cinematic space film in which the two characters encounter one another. Jia Zhangke serves as co-producer on this film, whose title is meant to be ironic while its narrative style that mixes fiction and reality is like two sides of the same coin that expresses certain fates and life paths of women.

Emily Tang grew up in Beijing and relocated to Hong Kong in 2001. Her sophomore feature Perfect Life premiered at Busan’s A Window on Asian Cinema section and was selected for the Horizons section of Venice International Film Festival. It won the Dragons and Tigers Award at Vancouver International Film Festival and the Golden Digital Prize at the Hong Kong International Film Festival. All Apologies (2012) was again shown in the A Window on Asian Cinema section at the Busan International Film Festival.
