SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
+ Cannes Film Fest. Winner:
Best Actress Award - Maggie Cheung
Emily Wang (Maggie Cheung) is a woman who wrestles with her
dream of becoming a singer, her fitness as a mother, and daily
life without her partner Lee (James Johnston). Her past is
riddled with drugs and regrets, the result of which left Lee
dead in a desolate motel room in Hamilton, Ontario, and landed
Emily with a six-month jail sentence.
The only thing that she desires for the future is a loving
relationship with her son Jay, who is being cared for by Lee's
parents, Albrecht (Nick Nolte) and Rosemary (Martha Henry).
While Rosemary blames Emily for the death of Lee, Albrecht
recognizes the importance of the bond between a mother and
her son, and his faith sets the standard for the faith Emily
must find in herself.
Clean follows Emily to Hamilton, Paris, London and San Francisco
and in three languages (English, French and Cantonese), as
she battles for a place in a world reluctant to forget the
woman she has been and unwilling to accept her as the woman
she longs to be.
