Married off at a young age \u2013 as was customary in Taiwan in the 1970s \u2013 and had two children, Anu soon divorced her violent husband and raised her daughters alone. Since then her only romantic relationships have been with women whom, like her, earn a living as professional mourners at funerals.<\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s considered taboo in Taiwanese culture to question a mother\u2019s love, but that\u2019s exactly the topic of her daughter, Hui-chen Huang\u2019s intimate portrait. Mother and daughter set off on a journey together into the past, during which Hui-chen confronts Anu with questions that have tormented Hui-chen for many years.<\/span><\/p>\n In a series of long shots the two women discuss loneliness, trust, and abuse, yet most of these discussions end in painful silence. Shifting focus in order to plumb the depths of their relationship, Hui-chen attempts to understand her mother by also talking to her mother\u2019s siblings and ex-lovers. In doing so she paints a picture of the changing lives and conditions for three generations of women in Taiwan.<\/span><\/p>\n Teddy Award for Documentary at Berlin IFF 2017, Documentary Award at Taipei FF 2017, Special Jury Prize at Nashville FF 2017.
