Description:

For Love or Money unveils the compelling story of a fallen noble lady whose life has been shattered, leaving her adrift and without direction. Her world intersects with a rich heir who has consciously chosen a path of self-imposed poverty and freedom, dedicating his life to his passion as a painter rather than his family's vast fortune.

She is broken and lost, grappling with past traumas, while he strives for purpose and authenticity away from the demands of wealth. Their contrasting lives converge, leading to an unexpected bond. As they navigate a world rife with unexpected twists and turns, their shared journey becomes a profound quest for self-discovery. This moving drama explores whether their burgeoning connection can help them both find healing and true meaning in their lives, or if the intricate challenges surrounding them will tear them apart before they can embrace a future together. Adapted from Amy Cheung's acclaimed novel, this film ultimately asks: what is the true cost of love, and what is truly priceless?
