Synopsis
As a model student in her elementary school, 11-year-old Lin Yuqi is assigned to give a speech about her family at the Parents’ Meeting night. But after Lin finds out that she shares the same secret with a mischievous classmate, she starts to have second thoughts.
Director’s Statement
In many ways, the story and its characters draw inspiration from my childhood experiences. Apart from exploring the silencing effect of violence, the film, at its core, is my attempt at remembering and re-capturing that special moment when quiet thoughts of resistance began to germinate in a child’s mind.
