面子

Alice Wu 伍思薇, 2004

USA

2019


年轻医生Wil(杨雅慧 饰)是个美籍华裔。她事业如意,工作干练,但就是不爱打扮,不喜欢结交男朋友,这令母亲(陈冲 饰)非常操心。母亲刻意拉女儿到一些华人圈子的聚会,帮女儿物色对象,却总是一无所获。不料母亲的生活也开始混乱——她怀上了孩子,却不愿公开孩子父亲是谁。为了面子问题,Wil的外公外婆把母亲赶出家门,责令她一定要找个人嫁出去。于是,妈妈投奔到女儿的门下,暂时寄宿在此,女儿则开始四处网罗男人相亲。而因为自己女同的身份恐怕会让思想传统的母亲接受不了,Wil和女朋友开始转战地下。人人为了面子,都有一个自己的心结,不知何时打开。 


Saving Face (2014) is a romantic comedy about a daughter’s struggle to understand her mother's heart, which ultimately allows her to understand her own. A story of unspoken loves, contemporary and cultural taboos, and the journey of two women towards living their lives honestly.
