Small Talk

Hui-chen HUANG 2016 Taiwan Documentary color 89min Taiwanese DCP
My mother and I are like strangers. Our only exchange is the food she makes for me. I know beneath the deafening silence lies a secret that weighs heavily on her, knowing that behind her tightly pursed lips is a shame so overbearing that it suffocates her. One day, I summon up the courage to sit her down and make her talk. But am I ready to hear what she has to say?
