Journey of Love (1995)

Ho Nga Chun was a widow raising 5 young children (ages 10 and under) on her own. Desperate for money, she cheated during a mahjong game, but was caught. She decided to escape to the Philippines until everything blows over, meanwhile temporarily leaving her children at various places. However, in the Philippines, she was framed for murder and jailed for 18 years. Upon her return to Hong Kong in search of her children with hopes of reuniting the family, she is instead met with attitudes of indifference and resentment.
