Why this movie?
It's impossible to get bored watching Shih-Ching Tsou's debut feature film, which delicately captures the life of a mother and her two daughters in Taipei.
The film stands out for its vibrant staging: the night market becomes a character in its own right, mirroring a capital city in motion and a world where people survive through ingenuity and attachment.
Beyond portraying family dynamics, it reflects on traditions and how they are evolving in today's societies. It questions intergenerational ties as well as the relationship between social status, gender, and identity.
