Director's statement

The story was inspired by my mother and sister. A mother and daughter bonded by blood, but because of the inescapable control and rebellion against expectations produced subtle changes in the relationship. With the emergence of “employment relationship”, “living expenses” has transformed into “wages”, and the identity of mother and daughter seemed to become the outermost emotional shell.-“Your relationship with your mother determines your relationship with the world”.
