When widowed Mr. Chu, a tai-chi master, arrives from Beijing to live with his only son in an upscale New York suburb, it sets the stage for a warm comedy of manners. With a daughter-in-law who has no use for him and an ever-changing society, problems quickly arise. He's forced to call upon his tai-chi teachings and it's Pushing Hands, a traditional exercise, which imparts him the balance needed to survive in this poignant and comic tale.
