“We never live the same day twice.”
Drama
Each member of a family in Taipei asks hard questions about life's meaning as they live through everyday quandaries. NJ is morose: his brother owes him money, his mother is in a coma, his wife suffers a spiritual crisis when she finds her life a blank and his business partners make bad decisions.
VIBE
A quiet, profound immersion into the everyday lives and inner thoughts of a Taipei family. It's a film that feels like a long, thoughtful conversation, observing the subtle currents of love, regret, and the search for meaning in the mundane.
