“Between every mother and daughter there is a story that must be told.”
Drama
Through a series of flashbacks, four Chinese women born in America and their respective mothers born in feudal China explore their pasts.
VIBE
A deeply emotional journey across generations, this film feels like poring over old photo albums. It's a poignant exploration of mothers and daughters, their shared pasts, and the enduring bonds of family, tinged with both sorrow and profound love.
