Money and Honey

Jasmine Ching-Hui LEE 2011 Taiwan Documentary color 101min DCP
An epic documentary spanning thirteen years. Both the Filipino caretakers and the elderly suffer from homesickness in the Taipei nursing home. The caretakers comfort themselves by singing “No money, no honey.” Being a wife, a mother and a migrant worker, these women know how to survive, yet the way home seems getting longer. What do they have to pay for love and livelihood? Can their dreams ever come true?
