As a disease robs her husband’s identity, a devoted wife wrestles with reclaiming her sense of self. Siti was still a young mother in her mid-30s when an insidious disease fell upon her beloved husband Gary and upended their lives forever. Lady! chronicles the intimate and bittersweet journey as she takes on the hardest role in her life to care for Gary, who was diagnosed with young-onset dementia in 2014.

Dementia, what’s typically seen as an "old-person’s disease", is now afflicting younger Singaporeans, as early as in their late 30s. Gary was one of some 4,000 such patients in Singapore, aged between 35 and 65. That number is steadily growing. These young patients – as well as their families – find their lives abruptly interrupted. Many struggle to perform simple daily tasks, amid declining physical and cognitive health.

In Siti’s and Gary’s deeply moving tale, this short documentary shows a young caregiver navigating the emotional turmoil surrounding a lesser-known disease, yet still facing the world with resilience, humour and quiet grace.
